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.

Why when did the cape warthog became extinct?
The extinction of the Cape warthog can be attributed largely to two factors. Firstly with the expansion of the Cape Colony the demand for pig meat would have risen so drastically that they would have been exterminated in the regions nearest the Fort (Cape Town) soon after the arrival of the Dutch colonists. They were already extinct in Namaqualand prior to the settlement at the Cape and it is suggested by some that this population was exterminated by the Khoikhoi and San people, although this might be somewhat contradictory as others hold that the Khoikhoi and San strongly rejected pig meat. For the drier karoid regions it would have been easier to eradicate as they were probably more thinly distributed in those regions. Secondly, after all the heavy persecutions on their population, the remaining animals were exterminated by the Rinderpest epidemic in 1896. To close, the Cape Warthog, like most of the other South African mammals who had restricted distributions (e.g. Cape lion, Cape black rhino, Quagga and Blue antelope), suffered greatly under the persecutions of man and his weapon.

Additional Information:
They eat just about anything because their digestive system is capable of using a wide variety of fodder.
many feeds in domestic pig's diets contain animal fat to make them eat more to grow faster.
Vegetarianism is a human life choice that requires a level of decision making that no animal is capable of, as far as we know.

How many hours to Walk Around the world?
Well, if there were a straight road all around the equator, and you walked 8 hours a day, 5 kilometers an hour (i.e., 40 kilometers a day), it would take you a thousand days (almost three years) to go around. However, please note that there really is no such straight road; there isn't even a not-so-straight road which you could walk in a much longer time. Parts of the trip could only be done by ship.
