Pygmy hog (Porcula salvania)
Fascinating specimen! Do you have any background information on this specimen? According to Zootoerliste, two zoos in France kept Pygmy hogs (Porcula salvania) in the past. Paris Vincennes Zoo and the now closed Jardin dAcclimatation, also in Paris. Did this animal come from either of those facilities? Or was it wild caught in its home range? Also would anyone happen to have a specimen number for this animal so I can look it up in the museum's research & collections database?
