Togean babirusa
The Togean babirusa is a unique species of wild pig found exclusively on the Togean Islands in Indonesia. It is known for its distinctive long, curved tusks that can grow through the skin and curve back towards the face. This species primarily inhabits forests and swamps, where it forages for fruits, roots, and other vegetation.
Togean babirusas are medium-sized animals, typically weighing between 50 to 100 kilograms. They are social creatures, often found in small groups. Due to habitat loss and hunting, the Togean babirusa is classified as vulnerable, highlighting the need for conservation efforts to protect this rare species.
