Pygmy Hog
The pygmy hog is the smallest pig species in the world — standing just 25 centimetres (9.8 in) at the shoulder. It is also one of the rarest. Once widespread across the southern foothills of the Himalayas, fewer than 250 mature individuals now survive, confined to a small patch of grassland in Assam, India.
