This week I’ve been sharing photos of animals I saw in Botswana a couple of years ago. Here’s one that always made me giggle. Warthogs are such unusual creatures. I loved how he dropped down on his knees. They do this so they can dig with their snouts. My book refers to this guy as the common warthog. I’m not sure how the word common fits.

I also love to watch these creatures! Tails up and away we go!
Yes! They do scurry away.
Common or not, interesting info and photo. Digs with its snout? Ouch.
I wouldn’t want to do that either.
What a cute photo! When I was in Kenya, I fell in love with them too. I agree, nothing common about them!
I would love to go to Kenya and see more of them.
His little horns are interesting.
Interesting, but I wouldn’t want to find out how powerful.
I feel like I am in the movie The Lion King!
LOL…many said that while we were there.
He isn’t common at all! Not where I’m from anyway 😛 I know they are suppose to be ugly, but i think he is kind of cute!
I have a hard time calling him ugly since his ugliness works so well for him.
How weird! Great photo. Were you very close to all the animals?
It looks like we were a lot closer than we actually were.
he looks so sweet … for a warthog!
Yes!
Yes, this makes me giggle too! It looks like he is praying.
Only a face a mother would love!
🙂
They are indeed weird animals. Prehistoric looking, if you ask me… 🙂
I can see that, prehistoric and cute
There is definitely nothing common about that guy at all!!! He is adorable in his own way, don’t you think????
I loved watching these little guys. They have a way about them that makes me giggle and if I wasn’t terrified of his horns, I’d give him a hug.
Oh, I love that picture. Warthogs are so cute. And it reminds me of the character out of the Lion King.
Thanks for sharing that one.
Lynn 😀
Thanks Lynn
