Not sure how to explain this one but it was interesting enough I thought I would share it. Enjoy! If you have some interesting game camera photos send them to me at harry@ihuntintexas.com, our viewers would love to see them.

My guess is that the raccoon are “grooming” the hogs for ticks or something like that. We have documented examples of this kind of mutualism from other species (fish are known to do this). The raccoon is probably feeding on the ticks, and the hog gets his parasites removed and a nice back scratching. Sign me up!
