About Creole
The Creole Pig is a breed of pig indigenous to the Caribbean nation of Haiti. Creole pigs are well adapted to local conditions, such as available feed and conditions needed for their management as livestock, and were popular with the Haitian peasant farmers until an extermination campaign in the 1980s. They served as a type of savings account for the Haitian peasant: sold or slaughtered to pay for marriages, medical emergencies, schooling, seeds for crops, or vodou ceremonies. The dark black pigs are known for their boisterous nature and have been incorporated into elements vodou folklore and the oral history of the Haitian revolution. <br /> <br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creole_Pig
