Field Notes

Description:

tusked, hairy pig

Habitat:

native to the Phillipines; this was in the Oregon Zoo

Notes:

There are very few of these fellows left in the world: apparently they were good eating. Portland is one of only a half dozen zoos in North America that keep them. They are critically endangered.
