The Razorback, as it has been colloquially named by the Marines, is an animal native to the Borealan deserts that the Rask have domesticated for use as attack animals. Razorbacks live in packs of a dozen or more, which travel between the sparse oases in their hunt for food. They are both social hunters and scavengers, able to eat a wide variety of prey items, their powerful jaws allowing them to crush bone in order to get at the nutritious marrow within. Upon their backs is a camel-like hump, which is filled with fat, allowing them to sustain themselves for long periods without food or water. The Alpha of a pack is easily recognizable by his large hump, as he eats first, and gets his pick of the best food.
Although they bear a resemblance to canines, the Razorbacks actually have more in common with Earth's pigs and hippos than they do its dogs.
