The sculpture shows the animal at speed instead, tail held high, legs stretched into the dash that makes warthogs, in Bryant's words, almost unbelievable to watch when they run. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat speed matters to a warthog's survival. They rank among a lion's preferred prey, and it's their pace across open ground, not size or strength, that lets them outrun most predators that give chase. The bronze holds that urgency in a small, compact form, 35 cm long, suited to a shelf, a mantel or a garden bed. Warthogs usually live in small family groups called sounders, and it's often a mother's alarm that sets the whole group running, much as this sculpture suggests. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWarthog is part of '\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/benguelacove.co.za\/pages\/carol-bryant-sculpture-artist-exhibition\" title=\"Sculpture Park and Art Gallery Hermanus\"\u003eWhere the wild things come to rest\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e', Carol Bryant's exhibition at Benguela Cove Lagoon Wine Estate, running from 2 October 2026 to 31 March 2027.

Observing a wallowing warthog, it is almost unbelievable to see the speed they can achieve, tails held high, as they dash across the veldt. One of the lion's favourite tasty snacks, warthogs are often able to outrun their predators.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35 x 11 x 18 cm (L x W x H)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrice\u003c\/strong\u003e: On enquiry \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/benguelacove.co.za\/pages\/carol-bryant-sculpture-artist-exhibition#Sculpture_enquiry\" title=\"Warthog Sculpture for Sale\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnquire Now\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Benguela Cove Lagoon Wine Estate","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55704879726665,"sku":"CBSBWH2026","price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/6151\/1241\/files\/Warthog_Sculpture_Carol_Bryant.png?v=1783683929","url":"https:\/\/benguelacove.co.za\/products\/warthog","provider":"Benguela Cove Lagoon Wine Estate","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
