Population of wild boar (Sus scrofa scrofa L.) of Central Europe demonstrate polymorphism in chromosome number. This phenomenon is cased by chromosome rearrangements of the centric fusion type. The presence of Robertsonian translocations in the wild boar population may lead to one of three different karyotypes: 2n=36, 2n=37 and 2n=38. the aim of the study was to analyse the karyotype of five wild boar piglets originating from one litter, by unknown parents
