Wild hogs kept as watchdogs in Mexican farms
In parts of Mexico wild hogs or jabalis are raised with goats to guard flocks and protect chickens. They can be tamed to follow their owner, even acting as night sentries around ranch houses. The jabali is a cousin to the domestic pig, differing from European swine and described by its distinctive snout and tusks.
