The picture above is taken from the guestquarters of Andreou in september 2013. When in the evening standing on one of the balconies of the guestquarters of Skite Andreou somebody with a strong torchlight beamed at the forest below and there we saw 3 boars searching for food. I never saw these animals in the wild while walking the footpaths of Athos. This is what I did saw. But there they were at 10 meters from the monasteries walls.
