Grice.
Accounts from the early 19th century suggest the grice was an aggressive animal with small tusks, an arched back, and a coat of stiff dark bristles over a fleece of wool.[3] Highland examples were described as "a small, thin-formed animal, with bristles standing up from nose to tail...".[2] Like other livestock in these areas, the grice was small and hardy, able to survive the harsh environmental conditions.[5] Highland grice foraged for berries on moorland.[2]
