What happend to hakuna matata? Honestly, state of the world man...

Take nothing for granted! Live your best life! And follow your heart! ๐Ÿ’ซ๐Ÿ’–๐ŸŒŠ my heart takes me to the sea! ๐Ÿ™

Wild animals are capable of dramatic shifts in behavior, even when they appear tame per the article.

That man lost track of reality, and reality reminded him.

The notion that a warthog could be a friendly sidekick can be traced to Pumbaa, the lovable Lion King character known for popularizing the phrase โ€œhakuna matata,โ€ a Swahili expression meaning โ€œno worries.โ€

Lmao

That headline thooooo

CALLED WARTHOG FOR A REASON

STAY HUMBLE AND DONT STACK WARTHOGS

Good for the hog

A "tame" wild animal is still wild

That's a long ass article for a two lines news. Did he died or not?

He did not die, but he did get his pecker mangled by a warthog, which is a thing I did not ever expect to say.

I heard sharks are also great pets, he should not stop

Yes. Always & Forever.โ˜€๏ธ๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ๐ŸŒน๐Ÿƒโœจ๐Ÿ’‹๐Ÿฆโค๏ธ๐Ÿซ‚

The warthog has just discovered that his "friend" ate bacon for breakfast.

I really, really want to make the journalist shave himself with one of those "razor-sharp tusks"

Reminds me of Timothy Treadwell who was eaten alive

by his wild pet grizzly bear in Alaska in 2003.

Note to self:

When human relationships get you down, don't turn to wild animals to replace them. The sex will be a lot rougher...๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

Reminds me of this tweet:

that's oddly specific and also terrifying if that actually happened.

mothers. amirite.

clean your followers out.

Vegans have 24 hours to respond

Lolol. Not all warthogs...... It may have warned him previously... As you must know, animals will only usually only attack after trying to tell you, that you're being irritating, And attack if you don't stop, much like humans do & like this story where the cheetah almost attacked her dad

"Birthday surprise turned out to be a shock.... cheetah Gerda attacked sasha...."

lol good to know. I was beginning to look at my dog differently. He is a domesticated coyote afterall

Wild animals shouldnโ€™t be kept in a domestic environment, they should be out in the wild period.

kill them all lul

๐Ÿ˜ช

Not sure if this is a PSA or a warning, but either way: noted! ๐Ÿ’œ

When I was 17, we used to take our parents' boats out to an uninhabited island on the coast. About 20 of us were on the island that day. This island was known for feral hogs. Anyways, long story short, I went to grab some firewood for the evening fire. I heard a loud crashing behind me. A massive hog was heading right for me. Luckily, I made it to the beach and ran straight into the water. This thing was massive, and even as I made it to the water, the hog kept swimming towards me, so I swam about 75ft into the ocean.

The hog turned back, and for a second, I let out a little chuckle, thinking about how insanely intense that was. Just as I began to celebrate in my head and calm rushed over me, I began getting stung by a swarm of jellyfish. It was the worst I have ever experienced and ended up having to go to the doctor. Doctor said I must have gotten stung by 20+ jellyfish covering 80% of my body. Just a crazy night.

this is so sad ๐Ÿ˜ญ I need a happy story from you nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m

Complete side note

have you ever surfed with dolphins around you? That would be an amazing experience

My number one rule w Wild animals is to remember they are wild animals.

Sit in car

Have joint

Drive slowly on highway

Don't panic

I am with you

Have fun

The Outback is wild !

HF! They don't call em wild animals for nothing.

cows agree; def not cโ€™s

In a sad story about a man losing a deeply cherished hog friend, one looks up to the navigation bar and sees:

Inappropriate, Texas Monthly. Inappropriate.

Pumba ain't fuckin around

Wow...vile

๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿ’”

polution

Hakuna matata my arse! Dude is very fortunate to have survived, but couldnโ€™t they instead have released Waylon the warthog to wander his native habitat in the savannas where he belonged.๐Ÿ’”Exotic and endangered species are not trophy pets to be imprisoned in stockholm syndrome, hunted, bred and auctioned, conditioned on treats and anesthetized on psychotropics similar to those atrocious tiger king sties!

Animals don't possess human cognition, higher order connection and communication. I bet Waylon was instinctually protecting the nest of a pregnant mate. It doesn't seem like the whole picture is being presented here either.
