Warthog

Phacochoerus africanus
Scale 7 Diat: herbivore , Hierachy 2

The warthog’s average life span in the wild is about 15 years. Warthogs flee rather than fight. A group of warthogs is called a sounder. Their average length is 30 inches, and their average weight is 120-250 pounds. Warthogs have four tusks and they get their name from bumps on their face that look like warts.
