Hi Ryan,
I tried to post the message below at your page on the Butchart Garden boar. When I clicked to post the message, an error screen came up and I tried a few more times. I hope this works!

Very interesting! I never knew about the Florentine connection. I had a quick look around the web and came up with a good page which has links to some of the other statues around the world. Try this page out: http://www.derbyarboretum.co.uk/old_boar.htm
I also found one copy at a law firm in Arkansas!

Fascinating stuff. Thanks for placing the article up on the ‘net for all to see.
