Nesorhinus philippinensis, the Philippine rhinoceros, inhabited the island of Luzo from the Middle Pleistocene (+700,000 years ago) until probably the Late Pleistocene until about 50,000 years ago ( by me )

Here compared to a Tamaraw (Bubalus mindorensis) the biggest wild land mammal in Luzo , Up to 300kg.

N. philippinensis was similar in size to the modern Javan rhinoceros, weighing just over a ton, but it differed in having a small hump and a more elongated body.

Kolpochoerus limnetes the Savannah shovel pig, perhaps the best-known species of the genus , It was a common representative in the plio-pleistocene localities of eastern Africa , other species ranged to northern and Southern Africa and even Palestine

It was one of the many giant Suidae of the Pleistocene of Africa ( I could not find a reliable formal estimate of size) it is believed that adults had some immunity to predation.
