Were they being aggressive? I've heard that they can be, especially
the males. I know of one hunter that was chased up a tree by a wild
boar *with* tusks!

No overt agression, seemed like mostly curiousity and perhaps hope for
a handout. We have wild boars with tusks on a barrier island in south
Florida. They are very dangerous looking and I would not stay around
them long enough to take a picture.
