First time processing a wild boar for a customer and I'm unsure about the fat

The boar had a lot more fat than I'm used to with domestic pigs. I trimmed it similar to pork, but it smelled different. Any tips for game animal fat?

Trim it way more than pork fat, it can get strong. I usually render the good bits separately for cooking, toss the rest. That smell is normal for boar, depends what they've been eating.

Does that smell mean a gamier taste?
