Trying to relocate star boars tamed near a Boar Rune, is a lesson in futility. Trust me, I have learned after 1000's of hours of playing, the only thing to do is to actually build an enclosure around the rune. I do not bother taming anything less than 2 stars for livestock. If tamed near a rune I will breed them there and relocate their 2 star offspring.

Harpoon is your friend indeed :)

You can also build a narrow passage of fences from the pig back to where you want him and then push him along it, periodically blocking off the passage behind you so it cant run back if it manages to get past you.

I endeavoured to do this but it was too far from the workbench at the house. This is a good idea though! If the pig is close enough to the base.

No he goes to the stone anyway. Even if brought back by any means, including weaponry, during upload the Boar Stone pig flies forth from the pigpen by clipping through the fencing. It is only resolvable presently by finding another pig from outside the specific spawn point. So far, I will just opt to extend the pen toward the stone, and find more boars beyond the designated spawn point.

Boars that spawned from a boar stone try to return to the boar stone. Boar stones generate many boars but only the first time you render the stone. If you are going to tame boarstone boars you need to build your pen around the stone or you need to lead the boar back to your pen and make sure that your pen is double or even triple walled. I use a barn surrounded by a low wall surrounded by the base's earthen or stake wall.

The boar stone boar will always be in a corner that is closest to the boar stone and will always try to get back there. When you first load into the area boars are large enough that they can clip through the walls and escape (hence the reason for multiple walls.) Once your boar stone boar(s) produce offspring you cull the original boar. The off spring won't wander far from where they were spawned (which is your barn/pen).

Very good advice. The boar, as well, whenever the game loads up from save, will go straight through the fence back to the stone, if you have built the pen nearby the stone. My base is probably within the spawn radius of the boar to the stone and it is causing some kind of unknown conflict.

So the first generation Pig goes back to the stone. In this case he clipped through the post-fence during the loading, and simply ran out to the Meadow. Unfortunately, this seems like a constant occurence. Even back in the Pen, the Pig still gets out every time I go back into the game.

I made a fence around him, he is tame so he does not bash the fencing. But he simply flies outside of it as soon as I load the game up. I have decided I will go find another Pig whom is not tied to the spawn point of the Boar Stone to be the mate of my other pig who is well- behaved inside the pen (a boar found near the lake in the Meadows).

First-generation tamed creatures will typically try to return to the area they originally spawned from if given the chance. Offspring do not exhibit this behavior.

This is what I suspected. Also I think it could be unique to this boar because this is the PIg's own stone, where he spawned from, and goes back to and will not leave.
