'''{{wp|Pig}}s''' appear in the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise as animals that are typically anthropomorphic or capable of speech.


In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', [[Doopliss]] turns the citizens of [[Twilight Town]] into Pigs with the ring of a bell. When Doopliss is defeated, everyone is turned back. The title of the chapter in which these events take place is called "For Pigs the Bell Tolls", which is a reference to the novel written by Ernest Hemingway called ''[[Wikipedia:For Whom the Bell Tolls|For Whom the Bell Tolls]]''. Unlike nearly every other character in the game, the pigs of Twilight Town are three-dimensional in nature, and are nearly identical to [[Li'l Oink]]s from ''[[Paper Mario]]'', albeit with red eyes likely to denote their cursed status.
'''Pigs''' are animals in the [[Earth|Real World]]. They also appear in the ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' series, in multiple games. They first appeared in ''[[Super Mario Land 2: Six Golden Coins]]'' as bosses known as [[The Three Little Pigheads]], parodying the story of [[Wikipedia:Three Little Pigs|The Three Little Pigs]]. ''Super Mario Land 2'' also featured a Pig sub-species known as the [[Cannon Pig]].

They next appeared in ''[[Paper Mario]]'', under the name of [[Li'l Oink]]s; these pigs are used to get certain items. A strange, hog-like creature named [[Hoggus]] appears in ''[[Wario Land 4]]''; Hoggus could even make Pigs appear by sketching them on his pad. Pigs then appeared in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', which had [[Doopliss]] turning the citizens of [[Twilight Town]] into Pigs with the ring of a bell. Doopliss was defeated, and everybody was eventually turned back. [[Mr. Hoggle]], an anthropomorphic Pig, also ironically ran a [[Hot Dog]] stand in [[Glitzville]]. In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', there are several foes that resemble Pigs (such as [[Squiglet]] and [[Pigarithm]]).
