    Celebochoerus adalah genus artiodactyla Suidae raksasa punah yang hidup pada kala Pliosen dan Pleistosen di Sulawesi, Indonesia (Celebochoerus heekereni), dan di Pleistosen tengah di Luzon di Filipina (Celebocherus cagayaensis) Genus ini tidak dianggap berkerabat dekat ke babi rusa, dan terlihat sangat berbeda dari anggota famili Suidae lainnya. Kepunahannya diduga berkorelasi dengan penyebaran daerah geografi anoa, babirusa dan Sus celebensis

    About Celebochoerus

    Celebochoerus is an extinct genus of giant artiodactyl Suidae that lived during the Pliocene and Pleistocene in Sulawesi, Indonesia (Celebochoerus heekereni), and during the Middle Pleistocene in Luzon, Philippines (Celebocherus cagayaensis). This genus is not considered closely related to the babirusa, and looks very different from other members of the Suidae family. Its extinction is thought to be related to the spread of the geographical area of the anoa, babirusa, and Sus celebensis.
