Megalochoerus (SciiFii)

The elephant pig (Megalochoerus giganteum), also known as the giant pig and the hogzilla, is a species of large and long-legged pig that originally lived in Africa during the Miocene as several extinct species of Megalochoerus and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the modern rainforests, wetlands, forests, and open woodlands across Africa to help boost biodiversity. The elephant pig, as its name suggests, is the world's largest species of pig, with the length averaging around 12 feet (3.8 meters), the height of around 5.9-7.2 feet (1.8-2.2 meters), and the weight of more than 1,600 kilograms. The elephant pig, despite its massive size, has elongated legs for fast sprinting, allowing the animal to more easily escape from danger in spite of its large body. The elephant pig is an omnivore that primarily feeds on fruits, roots, tubers, bulbs, leaves, flowers, and carrion, although it can occasionally prey on any much smaller animals. The elephant pig, due to its larger size, lives in much smaller groups than other species of pig, with sounders consisting only about 5-9 individuals at a time, however, larger groups have been reported. The conservation status of the elephant pig is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the elephant pig's wide range.
