Description
Common Name: Unicorn Bullhog

Scientific Name: Taurusporcos unumcorniger

Length: 1.7 to 3.4 meters

Weight: 450-1000 kg

Diet: Grass, roots, and leaves

Distribution: The open grassland of the Congo Savannah and some parts of the New Congo Rainforest in Africa

Lifespan: 20-25 years

Description: The unicorn bullhog is a large grazing hog that is one of the biggest pigs to ever exist. It evolved from the warthogs that were common 40 million years ago and were much smaller than what they are now. These animals replaced the African buffalos that lived at the same time as the warthogs. However, since nearly all large herbivores have gone extinct, the warthogs were able to evolve bigger and fill up the niche of the buffalo.
The bullhog is brown in color with dark brown on the belly and the tip of the tail. It has a large grey horn on the top of its head which curves backward. This horn is used as a form of defense, usually charging at the predator (or predators) and flipping them over. The tusks of the bullhog are used to dig up roots and to stab predators. These tusks are very similar to the ancient elephants of the far past. Its size also makes it very strong and able to stand attacks from predators. This is helped by its thick skin which is about 5 to 6 centimeters thick.
The bullhogs have one of the most violent breeding behavior of all the large herbivores that live on the Congo Savannah. When two bullhogs fight, they will smash into each other at full force. The forces made by the bullhog could easily kill a human or at less, cause extreme damage to the bones and organs. Sometimes, the bullhogs will even kill each other when fighting, although this is even rare.
