Evidence of "pigs" mourning their dead.

[Catherine]

There are strong interspecies bonds. We always act surprized when we hear about them, but I think they must be very common.
Flocks of birds come to the feeder and they are all different species. Some of them must be friends. If there are friendships then there must be losses. Humans just don't notice things like that. So much goes on around us and we miss it.

The boy was young enough to be curious so he was open to seeing what the peccaries would do. I hope he keeps his openness as he grows up.
