== Biological information of the pig. == | |||
This article really lacks biological information about the pig. The article seems to stress eating/or not eating and raising it for food. Look up sheep and you will find long sections of behavior and intelligence, diet, reproduction, health, etc. This article about pigs is severely lacking in my opinion. <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 01:04, 5 April 2011 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> | |||

== Relationship with Humans section should include medicine == | |||
There is a long & rich history of pigs in human medicine. Seems like it warrants entry in this section. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 18:41, 18 October 2012 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> | |||

== Mixing up domestic piga with wild boars == | |||

== SOW == | |||
the sow is evidently a female domestic pig used for multiplication | |||
- | |||
please correct me when I am wrong. | |||
- | |||
At least this is the word's meaning when an Austrian or Bavarian | |||
farmer speaks of his "Sau" (this is the German spelling of sow, | |||
the pronunciation is identical in English and in German) | |||
- | |||
Moreover, Biologists use the German word Sau in a wider sense for | |||
any female pig independently from the race. | |||
- | |||
I don't know if this applies to the English word sow too. | |||
- | |||
There should be a wiki page for SOW and also a there should be | |||
a German wiki page for SAU clearing the usages of these words. | |||
- | |||
It would also be worth knowing whether the word came from German | |||
to English in early times or whether this word migrated to | |||
English during the evolution of industrial agriculture. | |||

== Nigel Pig == | |||
The Nigel pigs are big pigs that live Italy,Malta and France. | |||
Their habitats are Forests,Hills and Swamps. | |||
They are Omrivores they eat every thing from fruit to meat and even dead animals. | |||
They stay in packs to avoid predators sutch as Lynx and birds of prey. <small class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 17:49, 10 November 2014 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> | |||
== Pigs in Biomedical Research - Section Needed == | |||
Pigs are used in biomedical research for a variety of reasons. People who access the pig page in Misplaced Pages would benefit from reading about the discoveries that have been made using pig models of human disease. There are many citations that can direct the reader to more information. <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 20:44, 20 May 2015 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> | |||

== Habitat and Reproduction == | |||
This section could use more pig-specific content. The first two sentences are a stab in the right direction. The last two sentences are awkwardly phrased and apply to any animal, so little more than filler: | |||
:"If there is increased foraging of wild pigs in certain areas, it can cause a nutritional shortage which can cause the pig population to decrease. If the nutritional state returns to normal, the pig population will most likely rise due to the pigs' naturally increased reproduction rate." | |||
These two sentences read as if they are from the first pages in the first chapter of an introductory book about animal population biology, with "pig" replacing "animal". I'd be interested in more specific and detailed information about habitats types of vegetation, predators, climate, etc., in which we find pigs and their reproductive habits, perhaps how reproductive habits are the result of and respond to different habitats. No?--] (]) 20:13, 23 April 2018 (UTC) | |||
== Rubbish writing == | |||
Completely unsupported dates. Example: | |||
" Archaeological evidence suggests that pigs were being managed in the wild in a way similar to the way they are managed by some modern New Guineans from wild boar as early as 13,000–12,700 BP in the Near East in the Tigris Basin, Çayönü, Cafer Höyük, Nevalı Çori.[27" | |||
An examination of the cited sources reveals that the Misplaced Pages assertion is a complete fabrication. Both sources support NO DATES prior to 11000 BP. It is tedious to examine citations for this complete lack of honesty and rigor. The author's ability to submit such poor and dishonest work should be ended.] (]) 13:08, 21 May 2018 (UTC) | |||
