Warthogs are members of the same family as domestic pigs,
but present a much different appearance. These sturdy hogs
are not among the world's most aesthetically pleasing
animals—their large, flat heads are covered with "warts,"
which are actually protective bumps. Warthogs also sport
four sharp tusks. They are mostly bald, but they do have
some sparse hair and a thicker mane on their backs.
