The Smart Way Warthogs Keep Insects at Bay

Warthogs love a good roll in the mud - known as 'wallowing' - which keeps them cool. But to protect themselves from insects, warthogs turn to another creature to help out: the mongoose.

One of the best symbiotic relationships

@RNIK tube he's correct. It depends on how you are using the word in a sentence

[@alexanderbeck7953]

Indeed. Great harmony in nature, which generally speaking, represents the wider ecosystems of wildlife as they have always intended to be. Just a pity our species is destroying everything, but hey ho...we can still somewhat restore it I guess.

[@geodude7116]

Another amazing instance of this is when crows will remove ticks from kangaroos

[@missyc5627]

Warthog heaven! They seriously look like they are thoroughly enjoying every minute of it.

[@seaneubanks4380]

This put a big smile on my face. They seemed to be very relaxed & happy as the mongooses basically massaged & cleaned them.

It’s interesting Timon’s earlier characteristics look more mongoose than meerkat. Drawing the slender head of both and the coloring variations it would make total sense that Timon could have come from a mongoose rather than a meerkat.

Pigs enjoy the company of small animals like cats and other animals who will quietly pay them some attention. My pet pigs look like fainting goats when the barn cats hang around them. Pigs love little animals. Glad the warthogs and mongoose friends were able to find each other.

[@xeduxion4698]

Nature is too amusing, comical! Narrator: "perhaps a warthog can provide a decent snack only its long legs make the dining table a little too high for mongooses". Mongooses with snacks & dining tables! lmao! On sighting the warthog I presumed mongooses would scamper. Likewise the warthogs would have scampered had they sighted a lion. So mongooses and warthogs relate: they can discern peace and safety from danger!
