I'm an American living part time in South Africa across the Crocodile River from the Kruger National Park. Now a Safari Guide and Lodge owner.

How could I have not known that?!
It's calmed down. The only hazard I saw was a big croc and the shit. We got gators just as big in Florida. :)
They are cute like puppies.
these are juvenile pigs. If you look closely you can see they are all just sprouting.
Not at all. Extremely clean animals. The groom constantly.
I highly recommend the Kruger National Park in South Africa.
They are very chill. Unless cornered or their young are threatened.
Wait, not in the US? I thought I was just in the WAY Southern States. The down down south.
not sure what you think this "Disney Princess" is. Please explain.
2/2. But it's the food that brings it out. Some will interact freely and some won't for anything.
I find them to be a lot like people in rhe sense that they are individuals. Some introverted some friendly and extroverted. 1/2
that is true, but they knicker exactly the same when they are pleasantly excited,
@treknor, most of them are quite social. I've noted that only during mating season are the males aggressive
I don't find them that different. Their mannerisms are very similar, they are just wild and programed to survive.
I've seen that on many occasions.
preview . . . this lil guy is 5 months old and is the most social warthog I've seen. He is like a good dog.
You're sadly mistaken.
Stay tuned. I've got some great wartdog, uh, warthog interactions coming soon.
They most definitely herd. Almost never do you see one alone. I'll take my chances. I've known these 6 for almost 2 years. Not 1 bite.
Good eye. Hook 'em!
They are their "fingerprints". That's how I tell them apart.
They are survivalist. I've seen them extremely gentle and kind as well the exact opposite when it comes to eating or their well-being.
I got one kid at UT and one at TAM. A house divided.
Hook 'em!!
Not sure how that pic got in there, but the hard lockdown has been over since October here. I can have guests now.
They do, but I don't. The show affection just by being close, not with touch except mothers and babies. (Based on my observations only).
I've not heard of anybody doing it. I'm not trying. They are wild and come and go at will. We have a mutual respect.
They agree. Carrots are good, but apples . . . Mmmn.
Being in my space. One gal like to push her head against my shoulder and just barely touch me.
Yes they are. Extremely intelligent and sensitive at the same time. I've never tried to reach out and pet them, but they do enjoy
