Until face to face with a warthog, one doesn't truly appreciate how bizarre they appear. Commenting on the previous photo, Zhoen pointed out how much southern ground hornbills look like dinosaurs; similarly, warthogs remind me of some of the long-gone, prehistoric mammals — turn the tusks upside down and you'd almost have a bantam Uintatherium.
