HOG DEER, or PARA and INDIAN WILD BOAR 
(Genus porcrnus and Sits crista turn) 
The Hog Deer is a small relative of the Sambar. It inhabits the 
river flats and prefers tracts where the grass is of moderate height. It is 
found chiefly on the plains of the Indus, in the Ganges Valley and in 
Burma. 
The Indian Wild Boar is much like the European Wild Boar, but 
differs in color and size. The true wild boars are typical of the Eurasian 
mainland and outlying islands. This particular species is typical of the 
Indo-Malayan region.
