The Warthogs represented a species possessing sentience. Their characteristic features included elongated snouts coupled with prominent tusks. Notably, one individual from this Warthog species functioned as a pirate under the command of Captain Gorian Shard while aboard Gorian Shard's pirate vessel.
The Warthog species made its initial debut in The Mandalorian during the third season's opening episode. Their species designation was acknowledged within the episode's closing credits.
