hi, I had the trailcam inside my feeder last night. For well over an hour there were two hogs inside together. No pushing or shoving, but one remained half-curled, ‘frowning’ and snorting/hissing (all the while sitting on top of the feed dishes). The other one just sniffed quietly around the first one and nibbled occasionally at a fallen bit of food. Not enough space for full circling, but I do wonder if this was some early courtship behaviour. Previous footage of two together in the feeder showed that one vacated the premises after 5 minutes or so, and there was a lot more shoving and head-butting.
