The term hog refers to a large domestic pig. All domestic swine are true pigs from the old world. A peccary is a similar looking animal which is native to the new world. Pigs have tails and tusks while peccaries lack these. Pigs and peccaries last shared a common ancestor between 50-37 million years ago.

H1 influenza is a hog virus and I'm not sure about H5 (i used my Prier knowledge on this 1)
The Adventures of Greggery Peccary was created in 1978.
The peccary is not a rodent, but a relative of the wild pig. They are native to the Americas. Wild pigs are not native to the Americas, but there well established populations of introduced feral hogs.
Same animal.Also called whistle pig, because of their whistle like alarm call.
Apart from the size, and a beaver has a large flat tail, one lives in water...a beaver that is and a ground hog lives underground
A camera hog "steals the spotlight" from others, while a camera ham is a very over-enthusiastic model for the camera, loves the attention, and loves to be photographed. A camera ham doesn't mind sharing the spotlight. And to think I thought a camera ham was a camera hog that had been "cured". ;-) Micron
Sadly, the peccary is an endangered species.
A peccary is any of several piglike hoofed mammals of the genus Tayassu, of North and South America, as T. tajacu(collared peccary, or javelina), having a dark grey coat with a white collar.
The peccary (which is a species of wild pig) is a non-ruminant like all other pigs.
No. A peccary, or javalina, is in the order Artiodactyla which includes pigs, cattle and giraffes and the family Tayassuidae which is specific for peccary species. They are much more closely related to pigs and cattle than rodents. : Artiodactyla
Yes they are.
