Banded pig
The banded pig (''Sus scrofa vittatus'') is a subspecies of wild boar native to the Thai-Malay Peninsula and many Indonesian islands, including Sumatra, Java, and the Lesser Sundas as far east as Komodo. It is the most basal subspecies, having the smallest relative brain size, more primitive dentition and unspecialised cranial structure.〔Hemmer, H. (1990), ''Domestication: The Decline of Environmental Appreciation'', Cambridge University Press, pp. 55-59, ISBN 0521341787〕 It is a small, short-faced subspecies with a white band on the muzzle,〔Groves, C. (2008). ''Current views on the taxonomy and zoogeography of the genus Sus.'' pp. 15–29 ''in'' Albarella, U., Dobney, K, Ervynck, A. & Rowley-Conwy, P. Eds. (2008). ''Pigs and Humans: 10,000 Years of Interaction''. Oxford University Press. ISBN 978-0-19-920704-6〕 as well as sparse body hair, no underwool, a fairly long mane, and a broad reddish band extending from the muzzle to the sides of the neck.〔Groves, C. P. et al. 1993.

IUCN/SSC Pigs and Peccaries Specialist Group, ISBN 2-8317-0141-4〕 In habits, it differs from most other boar populations by being highly frugivorous, with specimens in Ujung Kulon National Park in Java eating around 50 different fruit species, especially figs, thus making them important seed dispersers.〔Oliver, W.
