According to paleontologists, the earliest fossils of the pig family appeared in Europe between 56 and 33.9 million years ago. It can be said that pigs have been around longer than humans.

Tens of millions of years of evolution led to the later spread of pigs throughout Africa, Eurasia and the American continent. Some species of pigs were tall and ferocious, with extremely long tusks, and were the beasts of the land at that time.

Wild boars are said to have been domesticated first in China, and the remains of the earliest domestic pig in China are said to be 8,600-8,200 years old. Most of the fossils of domestic pigs from other countries in the world are 3500-5000 years old.

Pigs have a high IQ among animals. U.S. scientists experiments found that pigs can quickly learn the use of some simple props, in the animal world, second only to the highest IQ chimpanzees.

In addition, pigs have a very keen sense of smell and have a particular fondness for sweets. Many countries customs, airports have used pigs to search for drugs and contraband.
