Origami: How to fold a Wild boar

SPONSORED LINK
 

 

I’ll show you how to fold a wild boar with origami paper.

I’ve heard that wild boars have as good a nose as dogs

and even pigs were originally bred to housing pigs from wild boars.

 

As people say about certain people, “an impulsive doer like a rushing wild boar”,

we have to be very careful not to be hit by them!

 

Even though we have the image of being a little sensitive and scary,

it will be so cute if we make it with origami paper.

Let’s give it a try!

in the restaurant when you eat out.

 いのしし

They all look dignified, don’t they?

The charm of the male wild boar is being powerful with huge tusks.

 

If you use pastel colored origami paper or small origami paper,

and draw some patterns on it, it will be a wild boar piglet too.

 

It’s so heart-warming to see an animal’s parent and child, isn’t it?

It might be hard to fold it with small origami paper, but give it a try!
