Warthogs
Warthogs are large pigs in the genus Phacochoerus and are found in central and southern Africa. An iconic feature of the warthog is their tusks which are found on both sexes. Warthogs are also surprisingly fast runners and jumpers, they use this ability to escape predators like lions and also when they are fighting over territory.

What is the symbiotic relationship between an oxpecker and a warthog?
The Ecologist's Best Guess: Ostriches eat grass, and warthogs eat insects and the roots of grassland plants. When foraging, warthogs (like barnyard pigs) churn up the soil and make plants more accessible to the ostriches. In turn, the ostrich can see a long way off and the warthog has very bad vision. Probably the ostrich watches for predators and alerts the warthog if they are near so that both animals may escape. This relationship is an example of mutualism, a kind of symbiosis (interaction of different species) in which both organisms benefit from the relationship.

Well, darling, warthogs are omnivores, so they'll pretty much eat anything they can get their snouts on. Meerkats, with their small size and cute little faces, would make a tasty snack for a hungry warthog. So, yeah, if a warthog is feeling peckish, a meerkat might just end up on the menu.

What is the life expectancy of a Warthog?
You could look for a question in the warthogs category (on this site), that asks about their average lifespan (age), and answer the question. Your contribution would be valuable to other members who are doing research for a project in the future.
warthogs have adapted there hearing so that they can hear better, have ears on the side of their heads so that they can see if a predator is coming, good hearing so they can hear anything coming and have very thin hair so that they can loose body heat quicker as they live in the African Plains.

Why did so many civilizations around the world believe in Dragons?
Seeing dragon-esque figures in Ancient Chinese paintings and such is not uncommon.
So how could this have been possible for these undeniably different cultures to develop the same idea?
Occam's Razor may seem to answer : dragons really do exist!
Jung, student of pronounced teacher Sigmund Freud, believed that humans have not only a personal unconscious but also a collective one. Meaning this : human beings have not only a personal unconscious (most people think of only their personal unconscious), but another set of ideas humans are naturally inborn with, perhaps even genetically.
Humans all are born with similar traits, most usually two arms, two legs, etc… why could we not also be born with some similar ideas?
Dragons are not the only items that have appeared in different places independently.. The Nazi Swastika is almost identical to a Buddhist symbol for peace, neither knew the other until much later.
Look into Jung's essay 'The Personal and Collective Unconscious'.
