Hey Jon,

cool vid man... I have not seen this behavior in hogs but I have seen it in other species including gaboons...



Monitor lizards also do this frequently... In my experience, it is mock courting/breeding... Reptiles use this display to assert donimance... The sex does not even matter... It can be male on male, male on female, female on female, and even female on female...



I am not suprized to see this especially being that they are in such close proximity...



Great video opportunity Jon...
