The warthog is a wild pig native to Africa, known for its distinctive appearance. It has a large, stocky body, short legs, and a flat face. Warthogs have prominent tusks that can grow quite long, which they use for digging and defense. They typically inhabit savannas, grasslands, and woodlands, where they forage for roots, fruits, and grasses. Warthogs are social animals, often seen in small groups called sounders, usually consisting of females and their young. Males tend to be solitary or form loose bachelor groups. They are well-adapted to their environment and can run quickly despite their bulky build.
