Description
The Sardinian pig is a small native breed, originally from Sardinia. Rustic and resistant, it has morphological characteristics similar to those of the wild boar, with which it sometimes crosses paths. It lives mainly in the semi-wild state in the Mediterranean scrub and undergrowth, where it grazes freely adapting to the natural environment of the island.
