A combination of a man and a pig. He doesn't have to be a genetic hybrid, sometimes he's just a pig-like humanoid alien. In fantasy settings they may be a rare kind of were-animal, or just a pig-faced monster. Sometimes the work will call the Pig Man an "orc" — this probably stems from the fact that orcs are often depicted as pug-nosed, tusked creatures and because of Dragon Quest, an RPG series that was and is extremely popular in Japan depicting them as Pigmen based off an illustration in 1st edition Dungeons & Dragons. There's also the similarity between the words "orc" and "pork", strengthening the connection (even though the two words are etymologically unrelated). In more futuristic settings, they'll be the product of genetic manipulation; these are usually human with "pig" added to them, but it could be the other way around. Either way, they're used as grunts, they have little intelligence, and they can be slaughtered by the hundreds with no moral implications. In science-fiction settings, it makes a certain amount of sense that the pig is the preferred species for this type of gene splicing: pigs and humans are anatomically similar enough on the inside that pigs may soon be grown as human organ donors. The similarities even extend to behavior, pigs being omnivores with furless skin and similar behavior in the wild, enjoying beer as much as the next guy. Due to their association with Orcs and to negative cultural associations of their animal nature, pig men are often cast as villains. Heroic pig men also exist, although they typically have somewhat slovenly characteristics and function as antiheroes. Heroic pig men typically stand for men in their late forties, and as such tend to have jaded or hard boiled personalities. They may also have positive characteristics which are typically associated with this demographic, such as jolliness and caring parental traits. The villains in these cases will typically also be cruel, vain, narcissists; Uncle Pey'j from Beyond Good & Evil who went up against trumped up military officials (among others), and Porco Rosso who went up against a cocky fascist fighter pilot are examples of anti-heroic pigs with awful adversaries. If the character is young then they will stand for a chubby child and may be subject to bullying if they are sympathetic characters or be bullies if they are non-sympathetic. In fantasy stories heroic pig men will typically be turncoats who have defected from an evil force. For this reason they may go through ostracization or racial stigmatization. Tragic is the story of the Pig Man who escapes his evil masters and tries to live a human life; they'll usually be outcasts who will never know what it's like to be loved. As the trope name implies, a character of this type will almost always be a Pig Man, similar to how cats are usually female. There are a number of reasons for this, the most prominent being that both pigs and men are stereotypically boorish and disgusting, and of course pigs are not considered the most attractive animal; Beauty Is Never Tarnished after all! If there is a whole race of Pig People you might see some Pig Women in the background but don't expect them to play an especially vital role. If there are any, expect Cute Monster Girl to be in full effect; they'll be less a humanoid pig and more a Big Beautiful Woman with pink skin, pig ears, a pig tail and maybe a cute little snout. In yet another (almost entirely gay) sense, anthropomorphic pigs and boars can be very potent fetish appeal in furry Bara. This is somewhat rare in the Western Furry Fandom (and any cultural context where pigs are culturally considered unappealing to look at), but is more abundant in the Japanese Kemono community, where it peaked during the Year of the Pig in 2007, and again in 2019. Much of the appeal is in the highly masculine Unkempt Beauty of Pig Men portrayals (sometimes overlapping with Ugly Cute), having much in common with the aesthetic ideals of The Bear community. Subtrope of Beast Man. Compare Half-Human Hybrid, Full-Boar Action, Government Conspiracy and Corrupt Corporate Executive, for when the pig person is a Gluttonous Pig. Oh, also Beauty Equals Goodness, Mooks and Hollywood Evolution. See also: Full-Boar Action, for swine that aren't part human and are crazy anyway. Messy Pig for portrayals of pigs as slovenly, which can be a neutral trait- but if it's as a negative or sinister trait, it overlaps with Uncleanliness Is Next to Ungodliness. Perverted Pig, for more lecherous and creepy portrayals of porcines. Police Pig, for (often negative) comparisons between swine and police officers. Brainy Pig, for pigs depicted as intelligent. Has nothing to do with the title character of The Pigman. Or Pikmin either, for that matter. |

Minecraft Legends: Throughout the game, the player will almost exclusively fight pig men known as Piglins. The Piglins resemble pigs but stand upright. They wear primitive clothing and exhibit warlike behavior, including the use of weapons. They can't speak, but can communicate with each other through various grunts. | |

One recruitable ally in Tokyo Afterschool Summoners is a boar man named Gouryou/Ganglie, who takes direct inspiration from Journey to the West's character Pigsy. Though he's not as bad as his inspiration - unlike Pigsy he was never evil - he's still a chubby, lazy, slobbish, corrupt drunkard Casanova Wannabe who spends his time trying to flirt it up with pretty much anyone available rather than fulfilling his duties as a monk. | |

The SuperMansion episode "Home is Where the Shart Is" starts with a flashback where Titanium Rex and the 1940's roster of the League of Freedom were chained above a pit of lava as Hitler planned to kill them with a porcine supervillain called Schwein Kampf. Instead, Schwein Kampf turns on Hitler due to growing sick of Hitler repeatedly insulting him for being a humanoid pig and throws Hitler into the lava in response to Titanium Rex confirming that Schwein Kampf is far from the only person who hates Hitler. Because of Schwein Kampf killing Hitler, Titanium Rex encourages the government to establish a law that villains are absolved of their criminal charges after doing heroic deeds, which in the present time causes Titanium Rex frustration when the law he started has made it so that he is obligated to share his mansion with the Injustice Club because of their hand in thwarting the Subtopian invasion. This leads to Titanium Rex asking Robobot to spy on Schwein Kampf in hopes of finding proof that the pig-man has committed felonies since his exoneration and therefore give power to repeal the law. | |

Dragon Quest: Akira Toriyama's Orc monster design looks like an anthopomorphic, spear-wielding boar. It also bucks the "lowly minion" convention by usually being first met in mid-to-late game Random Encounters, meaning just one could very easily mop the floor with starting or low-level characters. Rashers, half of an early-game Dual Boss in Dragon Quest VII, as well as his Palette Swap clones that appear later as normal enemies. |

In The Simpsons, Chief Wiggum is pig-like in appearance, and was shown as a pig in two episodes: A Treehouse of Horror and a World of Warcraft parody. He complains that Sideshow Bob actually called him 'Chief Piggum' at one point. When he finally gets the joke, he actually found it funny and when sprayed with mace in another episode, he actually screams "Ow, my snout! My beautiful snout!" | |

Porky Pig of Looney Tunes. Notably, Porky is the only long-running Looney Tunes animal character who doesn't ever 'play' an animal - if he's in a barnyard setting, he owns the farm. He often interacts in a world of humans as a peer. Same with Hamton from Tiny Toon Adventures. |

The Piggy Man from Roanoke was a deserter of the Lost Colony Roanoke that tried to escape after stealing provisions. He was eventually caught by the colonists who, after he was scalped by the Dragon-in-Chief Scáthach, was forced to wear a pig's head over his own, had a pig's tail nailed to his tail-bone and was roasted alive on a spit as if he was a real pig. Due to the curse the Butcher and Scáthach placed on the grounds there, he manifests as a ghost that aggressively attacks any living person on the property during the blood moon, never speaking but squealing like a pig. It is implied that he is only aggressive because his spirit is a slave to the Butcher's power, as he and her other victims are seen playing with the still living Flora Harris. In My Roanoke Nightmare, he is portrayed by Marti Matulis. | |

The Piggy Man of urban legend is mentioned in the Murder House episode "Piggy Piggy", revealed in Roanoke to have been a member of the Polk Family who, inspired by the Butcher and her bloody history, went to the Chicago State Fair in 1893 and massacred people in an identity homaging the Piggy Man spirit. Ironically, he died in an accidental circumstance where he was eaten alive by his own pigs. | |

Sometimes appear on Rocko's Modern Life. A recurring character is a pig-woman named Tammy, with a Southern accent. Another episode featured Rocko complaining about how his house has gotten to Trash of the Titans levels, comparing his house to a pigsty. A blue pig angrily asks (in a New Jersey accent) "You got a problem with that?!" before being kicked out of the house by Rocko. In the grocery-shopping episode, a pig butcher named Marty is lamenting how lonely he is. In the episode "No Pain No Gain," Richard Simmons is animated as one of these and teaches an aerobics class at the health club Rocko and Heffer are trying to get into. |

In Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie, Rita and Zedd had a pig-like henchman named Mordent; oddly enough, this character never appeared in any of the series. According to an early draft, he is Goldar's second cousin, three times removed on his mother's side, visiting for the summer, but this was written out for the final draft. In any case, he seemed to play the same role as Squatt and Baboo did, a non-combative lickspittle. | |

American Horror Story The Piggy Man from Roanoke was a deserter of the Lost Colony Roanoke that tried to escape after stealing provisions. He was eventually caught by the colonists who, after he was scalped by the Dragon-in-Chief Scáthach, was forced to wear a pig's head over his own, had a pig's tail nailed to his tail-bone and was roasted alive on a spit as if he was a real pig. Due to the curse the Butcher and Scáthach placed on the grounds there, he manifests as a ghost that aggressively attacks any living person on the property during the blood moon, never speaking but squealing like a pig. It is implied that he is only aggressive because his spirit is a slave to the Butcher's power, as he and her other victims are seen playing with the still living Flora Harris. In My Roanoke Nightmare, he is portrayed by Marti Matulis. The Piggy Man of urban legend is mentioned in the Murder House episode "Piggy Piggy", revealed in Roanoke to have been a member of the Polk Family who, inspired by the Butcher and her bloody history, went to the Chicago State Fair in 1893 and massacred people in an identity homaging the Piggy Man spirit. Ironically, he died in an accidental circumstance where he was eaten alive by his own pigs. |

Duckburg has quite a few pigmen, which seem to fall into two stereotypes: the sneaky villain and the gentle Big Eater. Both are usually rich. Carl Barks revealed that, for the most part, pigmen were used when he wanted a generic villain. That didn't stop him from making them memorable... Porkman De Lardo, anyone? Interestingly enough, if the Mayor of Duckburg makes an appearance, he'd usually be a pig. | |

The Legend of Zelda: The main villain, Ganondorf, tends to appear as either a green-skinned human man or a giant humanoid pig called Ganon. Generally, Ganondorf is his original form, while he turns into Ganon after absorbing considerable power from the Triforce at the cost of his intellect and lucidity; as such, while Ganondorf is a cunning manipulator and sorcerer, Ganon tends to be ravening beast who still displays occasional periods of brilliance. His minions, most notably the Moblins, also tend to look like this. Exactly how porcine Ganon looks tends to vary by game. The original game, The Adventure of Link, A Link to the Past and other 2D games go for a huge humanoid boar with blue skin. By contrast, in Ocarina of Time he becomes somewhat pig-like in appearance, though he has horns in addition to tusks and a tail that more draconic than anything, making more resemble a demonic Beast Man that just happens to have a few noticeable pig traits, while his appearance in Twilight Princess can be best described as a giant hybrid lion-ape thing with a somewhat porcine face and huge tusks. In Breath of the Wild he sheds any and all anthropomorphism to appear first as a vaguely boar-shaped cloud of darkness and then as a giant flaming boar the size of a hill. Ganon(dorf)'s minions have also tended to become increasingly porcine over the series' history. The Moblins started out as humanoid bulldogs but gained piglike designs in A Link to the Past that they kept in most later games. The smaller Bokoblins debuted in The Wind Waker as pretty standard fantasy goblins with porcine noses, dropped this trait in later appearances, and then went to being full-on Pig Men in Breath of the Wild. Hinoxes, which in all earlier games had just been cyclopes, are also redesigned in Breath of the Wild to be supersized Bokoblins with one eye and small tusks. |

In Seinfeld, Kramer walks into the wrong hospital room and believes he saw a pig man, but it turns out to be a mental patient with pig-like features. George says he wouldn't mind it if there were pig men walking around, since they'd make him look a lot more attractive in comparison, to which Jerry responds that it would also result in there being women out there with a fetish for pig men, so his chances likely wouldn't improve. | |

Going with the theme that Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs sets, the mooks, from lowly to elite, are all this. Given a truly horrific justification: the titular Nightmarish Factory is using unearthly alchemy and twisted surgery to fuse human captives and pigs together into a viciously child-like species to replace humanity through industrialized Human Sacrifice. | |

Tellarites in the Star Trek universe. Not evil (in fact, along with the humans, Andorians and Vulcans they founded the Federation), but incredibly arrogant and argumentative. Thanks to their Blue-and-Orange Morality, they consider insults and blustering arrogance good manners, and find excessively "polite" behaviour somewhat offensive. The Star Trek Novel 'Verse expands on this to prove that pride is a virtue to them, not a vice. In the Starfleet Corps of Engineers novels, Fabian Stevens insists he finds racist jokes about the Tellarite-pig resemblance tasteless, yet he seems to have an awfully enormous collection of them stored away in his mind. He would never accuse Tellarite team-member Tev of "hogging the glory", oh no... | |

The Hogfather, Discworld's Santa-figure, is mostly a jolly toymaker, but because he's mythologically descended from traditions of killing a wild boar to bring the summer back, there's still "a hint of hair and tusk". And, in Paul Kidby's illustrations, a ring through his nose. |

The Elder Scrolls: One racist in-game book describes Orcs, aka the Orsimer, as "Pig-children". They are really a race of Mer (elves) that were transformed when their patron spirit Trinimac was devoured by the Daedric Prince Boethiah and reborn as the Daedric Prince Malacath. Aside from their bestial features, they have no relation to actual pigs. Ogrim are a massive form of lesser Daedra that are as dim-witted as they are strong and possess generally reptilian traits including scales, horns, spikes. Online adds some pig-like facial features to their mix. |

Ganon(dorf)'s minions have also tended to become increasingly porcine over the series' history. The Moblins started out as humanoid bulldogs but gained piglike designs in A Link to the Past that they kept in most later games. The smaller Bokoblins debuted in The Wind Waker as pretty standard fantasy goblins with porcine noses, dropped this trait in later appearances, and then went to being full-on Pig Men in Breath of the Wild. Hinoxes, which in all earlier games had just been cyclopes, are also redesigned in Breath of the Wild to be supersized Bokoblins with one eye and small tusks. | |

William Hope Hodgson's novel The House on the Borderland features an underground-dwelling tribe of monstrous pigmen as one of the sources of horror. For those who haven't read the novel: we don't actually know that they're a tribe, and it's hinted (for that horror-filled touch) that they're the lesser/younger versions of an evil Pig Man god who turns up later in the novel, possibly as the primary antagonist. (It's a long story.) |

Exactly how porcine Ganon looks tends to vary by game. The original game, The Adventure of Link, A Link to the Past and other 2D games go for a huge humanoid boar with blue skin. By contrast, in Ocarina of Time he becomes somewhat pig-like in appearance, though he has horns in addition to tusks and a tail that more draconic than anything, making more resemble a demonic Beast Man that just happens to have a few noticeable pig traits, while his appearance in Twilight Princess can be best described as a giant hybrid lion-ape thing with a somewhat porcine face and huge tusks. In Breath of the Wild he sheds any and all anthropomorphism to appear first as a vaguely boar-shaped cloud of darkness and then as a giant flaming boar the size of a hill. | |

Minecraft: Zombified Piglins (previously called Zombie Pigmen), are residents of The Nether (and the result of an ordinary pig being struck by lightning, or if a Piglin stays in the overworld for too long). Unlike regular Zombies, Zombified Piglins will not attack you without provocation... but if you do provoke them, they attack you en masse, creating one of the most difficult fights in the entire game. Regular Piglins are also residents of the Nether, and unlike Zombified Piglins, they will attack you on sight, making it an interesting case where the zombie variant is actually less hostile. Thankfully, they have a massive fondness for gold and wearing any gold armor will make them neutral towards you — as long as you don't open any chests or mine gold around them. Once neutral, the player can barter items with them using gold ingots. Oddly, the zombie versions have existed since the Nether was added (in 2010) but the living piglins took until the Nether got overhauled an entire decade later, in 2019-2020. This is because "Pigmen" were originally planned to inhabit the Overworld villages but were tabled in favor of the more humanoid Villagers, and it took years for the concept to come up again. |

Delicious in Dungeon has pig-like orcs, drawn as basically more realistic versions of the ones from Dragon Quest. They have cloven feet, tusks, upturned snouts, small curly tails, and are covered in bristly fur (they also frequently have small horns, but it's clarified in supplementary texts these are implants). Young orcs have backs covered in stripes like a boar squeaker. | |

Doctor Who: "Aliens of London": This one is a subversion, since it turns out to be an ordinary pig that was messed with by the real aliens in order to make it walk on two legs. The Doctor is disgusted at what they did to the poor animal. "Daleks in Manhattan"/"Evolution of the Daleks": The Daleks turn their captive humans into these and use them for manual labour. One of them is only partially converted and helps the good guys. |

The Pigskins in Rimworld were originally created as organ farms. At some point in the past they escaped and their ruggedness and ability to eat pretty much anything led to them spreading across various worlds, even if their trotter-like hands cause problems with dextrous tasks. | |

Quite literary in Oryx and Crake, where pigs are spliced with human DNA in order to create ultra-large pigs who grow multiple human organs that are used for transplants. Some of them even have some human brain tissue, which makes them viciously intelligent. Of course, It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time. | |

Journey to the West features Zhu Bajie/Cho Hakkai/Pigsy, who is notably the least virtuous of the heroes. While in late depictions he's usually portrayed as a shaved clean pig man, in the original text he's more monstrous and boar-like, given his alternate name of Zhu Gouliang (Strong-maned Boar). | |

The "hyperpigs" of the Revelation Space Series are a race of genetically modified pigs who were originally used as Walking Transplants, though at some point scientists began to augment their intelligence; likely once their original purpose was made irrelevant following advances in technology. Due to their tendency for muteness and poor intelligence, they form the criminal underclass of Chasm City. Even Scorpio, an intelligent pig crime lord, notes that he doesn't understand complex human interaction and cannot understand music. However, an intelligent hyper pig cop named Sparver appears in The Prefect, working as a data analyst for Yellowstone's Prefects. | |

Mother: Porky/Pokey in general, though he's a pig boy and is clearly more boy than pig. It's obvious, though, that the developers tried to make him as piggish as possible without making him a full-on pig man. Mother 3: The Pigmasks. They even grunt and squeal just like pigs!

Porco Rosso. He used to be human, but he became half-pig through some unexplained event, implied to be his refusal to be Ascended to a Higher Plane of Existence. He essentially wants to quit humanity. Hayao Miyazaki often drew people as pigs, including the historical German tank commander Otto Carius.◊ |

King Ton of Kinnikuman; When Kin was a baby, a pig got aboard his family's spaceship, and in the confusion Kin was stranded on Earth. That pig grew up to become a powerhouse that defeated Kin's father King Kinniku and took over the Kinniku Planet. Kin's first duty was defeating Ton and win back the throne...failing miserably. Luckily, the butcher the pig escaped from all those years ago showed up and chased him away, allowing King Kinniku to retake his title. King Ton was briefly mentioned in Kinnikuman Nisei as a student of the Hercules Factory alongside the other Justice Choujin. | |
