- comments
- there is a {{cn}} tag. - I'm not sure a citation is needed there.
- it would be helpful to have a map for all these places in England.
- why is the Large Black not suitable for "intensive farming"?
- why are such large ears favored? - (just curious)
- "The first American imports were in the 1920s, but the population dwindled to the point where imports were again necessary in 1985." - was the Large Black thriving in America? Wouldn't the breed change in America so that importing them from American would change the breed in Britain?
- "The Large Black is a long, deep-bodied pig, well known for its hardiness and suitability for extensive farming" - why?
- "It is the only pig breed in Britain to be all black, and this trait helps protect the pig from sunburn in sunny climates." - does Britain have enough sunny climates that this would be an issue? I thought not but I could be wrong.
- "the Large Black was used mainly for meat production, especially bacon. The meat from the Large Black is known for its quality and flavour, but for pork production it was often crossed with the Yorkshire and Middle White pigs" - my ignorance - isn't bacon pork? And I don't understand what this bit is trying to say.
- With so many breeds of black pigs in the world, is the title for this article right? No (British pig) or whatever?
- An interesting article on a subject I have never thought about!
