@@bluracer766 oh no 😢 where i live there's a heard of about 15 of them and I always see the little babies and I just love them but I've seen those teeth and I don't wanna get close. I love them from a distance lol
@@CoolGobyFishNot any more than hippos are. Theyre more distant to pigs than alpacas are to camels, and comparable to the relatedness of dogs and bears.
@@BroadwayRonMexico Your data is obsolete. Tayassuidae and Suidae are distinct families within suborder Suina, hippos used to be included in that suborder too but genetic studies clearly show they are more closely related to Cetaceans, within suborder Whippomorpha.
How are they not pigs? Because they're 2 separate groups? So are big cats/panthers and little cats/felines. So are old world and new world deer. They're still the closest relatives to pigs and it's stupid that we decided that they somehow shouldn't be called pigs
How do I get rid of them? I really want to detour them from ripping huge holes in my yard every night. Can anyone tell me how to deter them from getting into my hard earned landscaping?
Pigs are European. These evolved in South America. They look similar due to convergent evolution,they occupy the same niche and do much of the same things as pigs and just look similar. Their feet and teeth are different as well. Tasty bastards lol
If it looks like a pig, sqeals like a pig, grunts like a pig, breeds like a pig, eats like a pig (omnivores), and is mean as a pig - it's a pig. Member of the suina sub order. From which we get the call: "Soooeeeee! Heeeeer, pig pig pig pig!"
That logic is actually pretty stupid. Javelinas LITERALLY are not pigs, ALL PIGS belong to the Sus genus and the family Suidae and more importantly ONLY exist on the African and Asian continents. Javelina are in the genus Dicotyles and the family Tayassuidae. Perhaps you've heard of convergent evolution? Animals in completely different areas of the world who are completely unrelated to each other but occupy the same niche end up looking the same or displaying the same behavior.
@@blobbertmcblob4888Its not convergent evolution. They are each other's closest relatives, but still only about as related as a golden retriever and a grizzly bear
if theyre native animals to the area then theyre not vermin. the only vermin on the north american continent are humans and that includes first nations people (who originated from Asia) as well as Europeans, Africans and modern Asians and animals which those people brought with them from overseas.
And rabbits are vermin? Are you listing animals that might eat your chickens or your vegetable garden? We don’t own the outdoors, anything that wants to eat our veggies isn’t vermin. I’d say humans are the detrimental species to this planet.
The closed-captioner just totally gave up here.
its being attacked by a javelina
i love javelinas theyre so cute 🥰
Ouch - cute? My friend's friend was riding his horse in New Mexico and he had one run under his horse and it gutted the horse.

I was in North Scottsdale and this one was behind me. I turned around cuz I heard noises. I screamed, he squealed, we both ran away😂😂😂
I loved it❤❤❤
Adorable!
Who the Javelina or news-castor 3:29
They eat shrubs. Good to know. Probably good eaten
I've seen these creature around our parked trucks at night.
They are called Peccary or Javelina and they are not pigs. They are "pig like" but not a true pig.
They are pigs,,, science is not always correct. Remember, "science" also tells us we humans are evolving "ape ancestors" which is absolute nonsense.
but they related to pigs.

Hot pepper powder will get them to leave your stuff alone.
Fencing helps. My neighbor had a nice garden the Javelina love. His yard isn't fenced so they visit alot, mine is they never come in.
Are they delicious tho??
Not really. They're really lean and unpleasantly gamey.
Good to know
Incorrect. If you cook it right, it tastes really good like pork. Might depend on the individual javelina though.
Rats
"But is it tasty?" - Naked Snake 😂
If Peccaries aren't pigs, what are they?
They're peccaries. Theyre kinda piglike, but not super closely related. They're more distant from pigs than camels are from alpacas

They are pigs for sure. Science is not always correct.
They’re just not genetically at all. They’re like deer, sheep, goats genetically.

Dont show this to ted nugent their wont be any left 😂
They should be considered vermin like coyotes bobcats and rabbits
Why vermin for any animal you list?
if theyre native animals to the area then theyre not vermin. the only vermin on the north american continent are humans and that includes first nations people (who originated from Asia) as well as Europeans, Africans and modern Asians and animals which those people brought with them from overseas.
A bobcat isn’t vermin, they’re a threatened species that doesn’t harm anything besides possibly your chickens if not enclosed safely.
And rabbits are vermin? Are you listing animals that might eat your chickens or your vegetable garden? We don’t own the outdoors, anything that wants to eat our veggies isn’t vermin. I’d say humans are the detrimental species to this planet.
they're not vermin! they help the desert eco system ❤️
