Yesterday I saw an animal, which I described as a ‘beaver’, bigger but without a long tail… turns out its a ground hog or as Robin mentioned a ‘whistle pig’ in the countryside.
Why is is called a ‘hog’ and a ‘pig’ anyway??

Duh – it roots around in the ground – like pigs! I have a funny story about whistle pigs…
