Best Answer

They travel in herds or packs to survive.

The actual name of the group they travel in depends a bit on what TYPE of pig you are talking about.

  • a group of young pigs is - can be called a 'drift', a 'drove' or a 'trip' of swine
  • a group of Boars (male pigs) - is a 'herd'
  • a group of older wild pigs - is a 'sounder' of pigs or 'sounder' of swine
  • a group of Hogs - is 'parcel' of hogs or a 'team' of hogs

We don't normally refer to a group of pigs as a "herd" unless it is a group of Boars.
