Erymanthian Boar

The Erymanthian Boar was the giant wild boar that roamed around Mount Erymanthus, in northern Arcadia.

Heracles captured the boar when he trapped it in the snow for his fourth labour. Since the boar was still alive, Eurystheus cowardly hid inside a huge bronze jar. Eurystheus ordered Heracles to show his future successes outside the walls of Tiryns.
