:: Ok, i think i see whats going on here.... I don't know how you got it into your head, but i never said a Groundhog was a pig. I was mentioning that Swinub could be based on a Groundhog on more of a pun or wordplay thing. Ground is what Type Swinub is and The last part of Groundhog is ''HOG'' which is another word for pig.

'''Groundhog''' | |||
The groundhog is the largest sciurid in its geographical range, typically measuring 40 to 65 cm (17 to 26 in) long (including a 15 cm tail) and weighing 2 to 4 kg (4.5 to 9 pounds). In areas with fewer natural predators and large quantities of alfalfa, groundhogs can grow to 80 cm (32 in) and 14 kg (30 lb). Groundhogs are well adapted for digging, with short but powerful limbs and curved, thick claws. Unlike other sciurids, the groundhog's spine is curved, more like that of a mole, and the tail is comparably shorter as well – only about one-fourth of body length. Suited to their temperate habitat, groundhogs are covered with two coats of fur: a dense grey undercoat and a longer coat of banded guard hairs that gives the groundhog its distinctive "frosted" appearance.
