May I base a drawing on your this photo? Just for my sketchbook.
be my guest! 😉
thank you!
you’re welcome!
this dude has a scary face.
wait till you see the tusks on the adults! 😉
He looks big!
and the adults are way bigger!
Love this look at a species with a different appearance 🙂 My brother raised pigs for a while, I get a big laugh to see another variation on the species. And I always remember “Charlotte’s Web” – “some pig!”
pigs are also a fascination of mine, lynn. my favourite is the bornean bearded pigs: https://nitzus.com/2011/11/16/a-pic-a-day-day-270/
Great looking pig!
Looks a bit intimidating!
yes they are, especially the adults with its curved tusks.
This guy is strange. And mean-lookimg too. Yikes! I hope you weren’t close to him! Nice, brave shot! 🙂
