Nguruwe was an extinct genus of even-toed ungulates that existed during the Miocene in Africa.
The word "Nguruwe" is the Swahili word for pig.
It was formerly considered a member of the subfamily Listriodontinae, but has since been placed in Hyotheriinae.
ô<sup>18</sup>O analysis indicates that N. kijivium consumed underground roots and environmental water, contrasting with hypotheses that it was folivorous based on its tooth morphology.
