How to tame a boar in Fortnite?
The Fortnite island is now teeming with animals, adding a new concept to the game.
The Island now features animals such as wolves, frogs, chickens and even boars.
Gamers noticed that in one challenge – which released Tuesday, March 23 -they’re asked to tame a boar.
To complete the challenge, gamers need to tame a boar, which they have to search for around the island.

According to Forbes, the boar could be found close to the farm, which is where players need to be at to complete the challenge.
The outlet advises users to not approach the boar without the proper tools, because it will be hostile.
What gamers will need is to pick loads of vegetables from the farm and feed the boar.
“When the boar is in a sort of docile state, either waddling over to your treats or eating them, you can go over and hold the interact button to tame it,” the outlet claims.
Forbes claims the process takes a few seconds, however, they advice players to throw 2-3 vegetables in close proximity to the boar so the animal doesn’t wander outside the interaction range.
If you don’t finish the interaction, it will turn hostile again afterwards.
Once players tame it, it’s you friend, and it will attack things for you and hang out with you.

What is the storyline for the latest Fortnite chapter?
The latest chapter is totally mind-boggling.
“During the Zero Crisis finale, Agent Jones and the Foundation (one of the seven) sealed the Zero nPoint in a tower of stone,” said Epic Games.
“As the Zero Point was being contained, it sent a mysterious pulse across the island, erasing any advanced technology in its path and reshaping the landscape of the island.”
The new Fortnite update has added wildlife.
But that’s not all: you can actually tame the creatures that roam the island.
Some of the prey is harmless, like the humble chicken.
But you’ll also find fearsome tusked boars, and even “vicious predatory wolves”.

You’ll be tasked with hunting or taming this wildlife to “live off the land”
And it’s also useful to gather materials for crafting.
But Epic Games warns: “Though wolves may roam, the most fearsome predators have yet to hatch.”
Fortnite players will craft their own weapons in the new patch.
Use loot from wildlife and technology that hasn’t been affected by the pulse.

Then craft your own weapons anywhere.
You’ll be able to make high-damage “primal weapons” including the Primal Rifle, Revolver, and the flame and metal bow.
Although the island has changed massively, you can still bag some important supplies like bunker chest, rocket launchers and other powerful weapons that range from rare to legendary.
