Ant Hog

Ant hogs (Formicederidae) are a subfamily of the pigs that are native to Eurasia and Africa. The group is named ant hog because some species can eat insects, while one species is almost entirely insectivorous much like an anteater, an aardvark, a pangolin, and an echidna. Most other species of ant hogs, however, are completely herbivorous or even omnivorous. Depending on a species or an individual, ant hogs can be solitary throughout most their lives (other than during mating seasons) or they can be social group animals. All known species of ant hogs are listed as Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and their tolerance to most of human activities.
