The Boars were a species that evolved from the boars of Earth.

These Boars were large creatures, much taller than a Human. They were similar in shape to a bipedal boar, with a large hump, cloven hooves for feet, long snouts and massive tusks.

The Boars had evolved from the wild boars of England, and were very proud of their origin. They believed that the boars were magically reintroduced to England in 1987 by the gods in order to fulfil their destiny. In reality, the Boars had came about because boars had escaped from a farm, and came to the house of the Doctor. The Doctor taught these boars how to speak, eventually leading to them becoming an intelligent, space-faring species.

How the Doctor taught the boars to speak is unknown.

In the 2070s, a Boar named Mr Brewster owned a hotel on an asteroid. (EDA: Mad Dogs and Englishmen)
