Should I be concerned?

I got my 2 boars, Denzel and Derek 1 week ago. I can tell Denzel is the dominant one and Derek is quite chilled. However I have noticed that Denzel keep climbing on top of Derek. Sometimes he lets him and other times he runs off from him. Should I be concerned about this or is it just lads being playful? He doesnt seem to hurt him, just climbs on top and sits there!

Mounting is normal behaviour. Denzel is just asserting his dominance over derek.
There are lots of guides and information on this website regarding the dominance and bonding behaviours of boars.
