How to pet wolves and boars in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3
Before you pet a wolf or boar in Fortnite, you have to tame them to gain their trust. You can simply do that by approaching a wolf or boar and jumping on its back. When you’re mounted, you can pet the animal at the press of a button. If you’re using a controller, the default key bind is down on the D-Pad, or B if you’re playing on a keyboard.
Once you’ve pet a wolf or boar in two separate matches, you’ll earn 30,000 XP and have another Summer Escape Quest ticked off your list. Since the Summer Escape event is scheduled to end on July 18 at 9am ET, you don’t have long to complete the final challenges, so you’ll have to be quick to avoid missing out.
