context_page_description: The Visayan warty pig is a critically endangered species in the pig genus. It is endemic to six of the Visayan Islands in the central Philippines. It is known by many names in the region with most translating into 'wild pig': baboy ihalas, baboy talonon, and baboy sulop
  The Visayan warty pig is critically endangered due to habitat loss and hunting. It is believed to be extinct in four of the islands in its original native range, with only small surviving populations in Negros and Panay. Due to the small numbers of remaining Visayan warty pigs in the wild, little is known of their behaviors or characteristics outside of captivity. In 2012 the Negros Interior Biodiversity Expedition undertook camera trapping in the Northern Negros Natural Park and gained the first photos taken in the wild of the Visayan warty pig.
context_section_description: Visayan warty pig piglets are often seen during the dry season between the months of January and March in their native habitat of the western Visayan Islands.  The mean number of piglets is three to four per litter.
