A hungry javelina has been caught on camera stealing an Arizona woman's Doordash order just minutes after it was delivered.
Footage shows the animal dragging a brown bag full off hot fast food from the doorstep of the Oro Valley home on Monday.
The ravenous javelina rummages through her order for a few seconds before tearing a hole in the bag to pick up her McDonald's Happy Meal box.
He then runs toward the exterior of her porch and drops the box to the ground.
Using his hooves and his teeth, he tears open the package and heads off with the food.
A hungry javelina has been caught on camera stealing an Arizona woman's Doordash order - minutes after it was delivered
Once the bag is successfully torn just enough for the pig to put his mouth in, the ravenous animal rummages through her order for a few seconds and picks up her McDonald's Happy Meal box
When the woman went to her front door to pick up her order, she was shocked to see it had disappeared.
She then checked her Ring camera, which had captured the entire incident.
Disgruntled, the woman notified the food delivery app of what had happened and Doordash refunded her order.
Also known as the collared peccary, javelinas are relatively widespread and can be found in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, through Mexico and into the South American country of Argentina.
Their size varies among distinct populations; however, they are usually about 18-24 inches tall and weigh between 35-55 pounds.

While the Javelina has poor eyesight, they are excellent at making out movement possess a fair hearing, and a great sense of smell.
This herbivorous species prefers to live around mesquite habitats with an abundance of prickly pear cactus but can also be found in semi-desert canyons, cliffs and watering holes near cactus.
The tactical food theft came a month after a bear swiped a Florida family's Taco Bell delivery off of their front porch.
Laidy Guiterrez and Daniel Bula had ordered $45 of food on Uber Eats to their home in Longwood on Friday night.
The bear had other ideas and snagged the bag of food right after a delivery woman dropped it off.
Home surveillance footage captured the animal grabbing the brown bag of food with its mouth and coming back soon after to collect the drinks.
The homeowner Laidy Guiterrez (pictured) came out to the front porch with their daughter and found that their food was stolen by the bear
By the time the family went to retrieve their food, it was gone. Uber Eats reportedly refunded the family for their stolen meal.
The video shows the delivery driver as she arrives at the house and drops off a brown bag and drink tray outside the front door.
After she places the order on the ground, she snaps a quick picture of it before she heads off.
Soon enough, a 300 to 400lb black bear comes strolling onto the property and approaches the front door.
The bear then bends down and quickly took the bag by its teeth and leisurely walks away.
That's when Guiterrez and her daughter went to open the door just ten minutes later and saw an empty front porch.
'The bear took the food,' Guiterrez says.
Nicole Castro, Guiterrez's niece said that the bear then came back and took the sodas.
