#5 - The Warthog

Download it: MP3

It looks like a caricature of nature: a massive head, thin legs, four curved tusks – and a tail like a small antenna in the grass.

But the warthog is anything but ridiculous.

It's fast, resilient, adaptable – and perfectly built for life on the African savanna.

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • why warthogs eat on their knees
  • how their tusks sharpen themselves
  • why they dash out of their burrows at full speed in the morning
  • how they cooperate with mongooses
  • and why their sense of smell saves their lives

An episode about an animal that is often ridiculed – but deserves great respect. ……………………………………………………………………
