The giant forest hog generally is considered the largest wild member of the pig family, Suidae. They are mainly found in forest-grassland mosaics, but can also be seen in wooded savanna and subalpine habitats at altitudes up to 3,800 m. Adults can measure from 1.3 to 2.1 m in head-and-body length, with an additional tail length of 25 to 45 cm. Adults stand 0.75 to 1.1 m in height at the shoulder, and can weigh from 100 to 275 kg. The extensive hairs is mostly black in colour on the surface, though hairs nearest the skin of the animal are a deep orange colour. Its ears are large and pointy, and the tusks are proportionally smaller than those of the warthogs, but bigger than those of the bushpig. Nevertheless, the tusks of a male may reach a length of 35.9 cm. The giant forest hog is mainly a herbivore, but also scavenges. It is usually considered nocturnal, but in cold periods, it is more commonly seen during daylight hours, and it may be diurnal in regions where protected from humans.
