Visayan Warty Pig
Maharajah Jungle Trek, Asia
Joining the Maharajah Jungle Trek family in Asia is the
Visayan Warty Pig (
Sus cebifrons), a critically endangered species of pig found in the Visayas islands of the Philippines. Known as the "rockstar pig" for its distinctive mohawk of hair found on the male pigs, the Visayan warty pig will be the first pig species that guests can discover on the trail and will directly contribute to the slow but steady rise in population due to successful in-captivity breeding.
BONUS (ENRICHMENT ITEMS): Coinciding with the Kali River Rapids' deforestation storyline, a new set-piece will be included in the enclosure featuring several tree stumps, overturned tree trunks, scattered tree branches, and soil substrate where zoo cast members will hide several food items (e.g., tubers, roots, etc.) in at varying depths for the pigs to dig for to promote natural foraging and rooting.
If I used the incorrect terms in describing animal behavior, just let me know! My 3 units of Biology in college aren't helping out and I completely forgot what I learned in my high school Biology classes...
