Oliver's warty pig or the Mindoro warty pig (Sus oliveri) is a small species in the pig genus (Sus) which can only be found on the island of Mindoro in the Philippines. It was previously considered to be a subspecies of the Philippine warty pig (S. philippensis), however it was shown to be morphologically and genetically distinct.

The species is heavily hunted by the local people and is extremely rare.
