Description

In Selous national park, a mother common warthog and her piglet trot along the savannah with Pumbaa happily tagging along all while sticking their tails up. Why do warthogs stick their tails up? Well, this erect tail acts as a signal to other warthogs, especially in tall grass where visibility is low, to follow them. It's like saying, "follow me" in the warthog language.
