The white-lipped peccary (Tayassu pecari) is a fascinating species found in Central and South America. White-lipped peccaries resemble pigs but are covered in dark hair, except for certain regions like the throat, where the hair is cream-colored. They have a large head, a thick neck, a long snout, and a short tail. These social animals inhabit a variety of habitats across their range, which extends from Mexico to Argentina.
