Three Islamic State (ISIS) militants reportedly have died as a result of an attack by wild boars in Iraq, according to an English-language website that reports news from the country.

The story also was reported by Heat Street.

According to the report by Alsumaria News, a group of wild boars went on a rampage near farmland in the al-Rashad area, about 30 miles south of Kirkuk.

"Daesh [Islamic State] militants took revenge at the pigs that attacked the farmland," a source told Alsumaria News, though the method of revenge was not given.

ISIS has held control of the area since it proclaimed a caliphate in areas of Iraq and Syria in 2014. It has regularly executed civilians it accuses of collaborating with Iraqi security forces or with trying to flee to sanctuary sites.
