Hogs and pigs

Hogs and pigs make up a family of stocky and bristly-haired even-toed ungulates. All 16 species in the hog and pig family are fond of wallowing in the mud, from the giant forest hog of the African jungles to the common domestic pig. They combine a keen sense of smell with a flexible, muscular snout to root around the forest and woodland undergrowth, sniffing out things to eat, from fungi and bulbs to earthworms. They are usually very vocal animals producing some very noisy grunts and squeals.
