Nude sunbathing is a long tradition in Germany, with many areas set aside for Freikörperkultur (FKK), or free body culture. But wild boars are also a German tradition, and one that's been seen increasingly in the Berlin area.
Last week, at Teufelssee (or Devils' Lake) west of the city the two traditions came together to make a spectacular afternoon spectacle for dozens of lakeside spectators, both clothed and not, when a wild boar, accompanied by a couple of piglets, grabbed a tote bag belonging to a nude sunbather and ran with it. Since it contained his laptop, he followed.
Plunging on beyond the FKK area, the man pursued the beast, finally catching up while shutters clicked. The boar dropped the bag after the man shouted at it. The pictures have circulated widely on social media.
