The peccaries (also known by its Spanish name, javelina or pecarí) are medium-sized mammals of the family Tayassuidae. Peccaries are members of the Artiodactyls (even-toed ungulants) as are swine Suidae and hippopotami Hippopotamidae. They are found in the southwestern area of North America and throughout Central and South America. Peccaries usually measure between 90 and 130 cm in length (3 to 4 feet), and a full-grown adult usually weighs between about 20 and 40 kilograms (44 to 88 pounds).

Lobes:
Sounds like we have a rapidly growing population of feral hogs here in Michigan. I'll be doing my part to keep the herd in check around here.
Do hogs reach a size where they are not as good to eat? Is it because they get tough or do they start to take on a foul taste?
