About 30 minutes' drive from Lalinde, one could very easily imagine oneself in an Asterix comic strip: there, in the oak forests of the Perigord-Dordogne is a place that Obelix had obviously never heard about, or else it would not exist! --- a wild boar farm where no fewer than some 500 wild boar roam the hills.
Mortemart Ferme des Sangliers is a beautiful spot against the forested hills where one can wander along the little pathways between the well-fenced enclosures and enjoy watching the antics of the large herds of wild boar.
The boars are farmed for their meat, and at the end of your visit, you can taste the delicious products made from wild boar and the marcasin -- the young piglets: rillettes (the fatty soft meat 'spread'), terrines,sausages, and tinned braised and roast boar. Other products are the best ever hair brushes, back brushes and paint brushes made from the strong hairs of its fur.
For a few Euros, this is definitely a visit that is well worth while. The farm is open right through summer and over weekends during the winter.
