what does a poland china pig look like
Poland China The Poland China is a breed of domestic pig, first bred in the Ohio, United States, in 1816, deriving from many breeds including the Berkshire and Hampshire.[1] It is the oldest American breed of swine. Poland China hogs are typically black, sometimes with white patches, and are known for their large size. Big Bill, the largest hog ever recorded at 2,552 lb (1,157Â kg), was a Poland China. Poland Chinas rank highest in U.S. pork production in pounds of hog per sow per year.
Wild boar Starting in the mid-80s, several boars purchased from the San Diego Zoo and Tierpark Berlin were released into the United States. A decade later, more specimens from farms in Canada and Białowieża Forest were let loose. In recent years, wild pig populations have been reported in 44 states within the US, most of which are likely wild boar-feral hog hybrids. Pure wild boar populations may still be present, but are extremely localised.[69]
