I’d second what Stef says, I’ve witnessed this several times in my garden. The female, usually smaller, will sniff/huff really quite loudly whilst backing away from the male. He will then circle her while she makes a lot of noise and tries to prevent him getting behind her by circling too. This can go on for ages but eventually may result in hoglets 🙂
