Body measurements of Black Slavonian pig
The Black Slavonian pig is an autochthonous pig breed in Croatia, which has recorded a continuous growth of the population followed by the higher number of breeders in recent years. The increase in population has removed the Black Slavonian breed from the category of endangered local breeds. The consequences of such a significant increase in population

Genetic Insights Into Human-Driven Hybridization, Cultural Shifts, and Ecological Consequences of Feral Pigs (<i>Sus scrofa</i>) in Hawai'i. [PDF]
Polynesian pigs were brought to the Hawaiian Islands with Polynesian settlement in the mid‐1200s and represent part of the cultural legacy of Hawai‘i. Yet, the introduction of European pigs since 1778 and onward has put into question the ancestral composition of contemporary animals, and conservation efforts have been challenged by tension between the ...
