Dinosaurs may seem like the most terrifying prehistoric creatures, but believe that nature creates all kinds of other terrifying creatures, for example, like the Hell Pig. Here are some interesting facts about the Hell Pig that lived on Earth about 20 million years ago!
Hell Pig or known by its scientific name "Entelodon", is one of the prehistoric animal species that lived twenty million years ago. This animal is known as a ferocious predator in its time.
Although often referred to as "hell pigs," in fact, they are not true members of the pig family. Entelodon has an appearance resembling a pig, but its closest relatives are believed to be closer to hippos and cetaceans than to pigs.
One of the main features of Entelodon is its large skull with an elongated face. Species belonging to the genus Daedon even have skulls that reach around 90 centimeters (35 inches). In addition, Entelodon has bone growth in its lower jaw, and in its mouth, there are large incisor and canine teeth, resembling the dental structure found in modern carnivores.
"Merupkan Hewan Omnivora." translates to "It is an omnivorous animal."
This research investigates the microwear patterns on the teeth of Entelodon magnus, which is a species commonly found in Europe. This microwear analysis indicates that Entelodon magnus has an omnivorous feeding pattern similar to wild boars. It is likely that these animals consumed roots and fruits, but it cannot be ignored that they also sought food sources from meat.
The extinction of this animal remains a mystery.
Based on fossil evidence indicating their presence in the northern hemisphere, the extinct entelodonts are believed to have existed approximately 38 to 19 million years ago. Although we have a rough estimate of when this group became extinct, the reasons behind their extinction remain an unsolved mystery.
