Pork

Porks are a species featured in the animated science fiction comedy webseries Star Star Space by German youtuber Coldmirror. They are a parody of the Borg in the Star Trek universe.

Biology
As the name suggests, the Pork are a collective of pig-like aliens. They seem to share the same body features as pigs, however, they walk bipedal and are beings with a collective sapience that are also able to speak the common language of the universe.

When the captain was brainwashed and assimilated by the Pork, she wore a pig nose with an elastic band.

History
One day, the oldest colony of the Star Star Space Fleet on Mars was attacked by the Pork. The colony was completely ripped from the planet's surface, however, a call for help was sent out before the colony was fully assimilated by the Pork.

The crew of the USS Duck received the call and immediately flew to Mars. Once there, however, the crew discovered that the only remnants of the colony were casts of the buildings, shaped like fried bacon. A short time later, a pork cube appeared, the crew of which announced that they would assimilate the crew of the USS Duck and that resistance was futile. The Pork Cube approached at high speed and demolished the USS Duck with a tractor beam. The USS Duck fired all sorts of weapons at the cube, but these had no effect. Lieutenant Miffi decided to direct all power to the weapon systems and create a "Bombatic Lazer/B-Lazer". Before he could do this, however, the Captain was kidnapped by the Pork.

Commander Dave now filled in as deputy captain. The crew members pursued the Pork and realized that they were apparently targeting Earth. The Captain was brainwashed by them and was now their leader. Lieutenant Miffi activated the B-Lazer on Dave's orders, but it had no effect. The Pork now had the Captain's knowledge and could therefore predict the crew's plans. However, Dave had an idea that he hoped would rid the Captain of the Pork's influence. He flew the ship directly towards the Pork Cube, which, since the ship was hers, infuriated the Captain so much that she was freed from her brainwash. Shortly thereafter, other collectives approached, including the Ingeborg, the Kork and the Fork. The collectives attacked and destroyed each other.
