The Hog Badger (Arctonyx collaris) is a terrestrial mammal up to 70 centimetres (28 in) long, with medium-length brown hair, stocky body, white throat, two black stripes on an elongated white face and a pink pig-like snout.
The Hog Badger is found in Southeast Asian tropical rainforests. Its appearance generally resembles the Eurasian Badger, but it is smaller, with larger claws on the front feet. Its tail has long white hairs, and its front feet have white claws.
The Hog Badger is omnivorous, its diet consisting of fruits, roots and small animals. It is nocturnal.
The Hog Badger is common throughout its large range, and has been evaluated as of Least Concern on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
