Pictured is a sideview of a female common warthog grazing in an open field at the edge of the bush in the Okavango Delta in Botswana, Africa. Females tusks are always smaller and their facial wattles are less distinct. They are largely herbivorous, but opportunistically eat invertebrates or small animals, even scavenging on carrion. Warthogs often kneel down on their front legs and use their muscular snout to dig up dinner, as this warthog is doing. The photograph was taken from a safari vehicle based at the Atzaro Okavango Camp. The binomial name is Phacochoerus africanus.
