A wild boar in east India continues to visit a local man who befriended it as a piglet in this heartwarming video.

The boar was filmed on May 19th in a village in Malkangiri district, Odisha, as footage shows local man Mahendra Patra and Raju, the name given to the wild swine.

Patra reportedly discovered Raju as a piglet nearly 20 years ago during a major flood in the area and cared for him in his own home. When the boar became a little older, Patra released him into the forest.

However, Raju continued to visit the area around Patra's house and in village lanes, but never harmed any one.

Raju is fed coconuts, bananas, biscuits, rice, bread and other foods by Patra.
