Phacochoerus aethiopicus aethiopicus, originally native to South Africa, this subspecies became extinct around 1871. Cape warthog specimens held in museums lack locality records and the full extent of the Cape warthog’s former distribution remains unknown. There is no mention of this subspecies being obtained after 1860. The Cape warthog and the Dessert warthog are very similar in appearance, one difference is a lack of functional incisors.
