Maryland Zoo: Common Warthogs

There is nothing common about Warthogs.  They are beautiful animals, and pity the fool who doesn't recognize this.  I can give you the history of the animals at the Maryland Zoo and the provenance of these two, but suffice to say, they are companion animals.  No breeding.  They are Kumari and Hoda.  And Kumari is quite the scamp.  She knows how to steal food from Hoda without incurring his ire.  Perhaps he indulges her need with intention, or maybe he recognizes a lost cause before he even tries to conquer her will.  Is there an opera percolating somewhere in this relationship?
