Seen this over on the Bowsite.
Is there any agreement on which species of porkers make up a Ham Slam. What are they?
Javelina (North America)
North American Feral Hog (Southern US)
Bush Pig (Africa)
Warthog (Africa)
I guess we may want to include a European Boar here also?
While Peccaries/javelina look similar to pigs, Peccaries are classified in a family of their own because of anatomical differences. They are members of the Tayassuidae Family while true pigs are members of the Suidae Family.
