ye, you need to leave it alone so that it stop being frightened. Once it calms down, it will eat the food and become acclimating, which eventually lead to it becoming tame. Don't stress over food - as long as the area is in workbench area, it will never despawn.

Yeah I had left for a few ingame days to travel and I came back and nothing had happened. Just removed the torch I had there, and he's acclimating. I think the fire is just scaring him lol, so he wouldn't eat. Tyvm for your response!

yeah the runestones talking about taming boars mention they are terrified of fire lol
