This pair might consider the season's first litter of Visayan warty pigs a top achievement for the San Diego Zoo. The future of this critically endangered species rests upon the collaborative efforts of zoos and their partners, which extend beyond the reach of the AZA Visayan Warty Pig Species Survival Plan® by encouraging and facilitating local conservation in the Philippines for this species and others who share its forest habitat.
