The creole pig IS still a landrace of pig indigenous to Haiti although the US attempted to exterminate them in the 1980s because of a so called virus. Obviously they were not successful. Wikipedia actually noted them as being extinct. Suck on these hairy pig.... ears! Creole pigs ARE well adapted to local conditions, such as available feed and conditions needed for their management as livestock and are STILL popular amongst Haitian ‘peasant’ farmers. Livestock serves as a sort of savings account where they can be sold to recuperate the money spent and often times with a profit. These dark black pigs are known for their boisterous nature and have been incorporated into elements of Godoy folklore and the oral history of the Haitian revolution. The ATTEMPTED extermination of our native pigs was done out of fear of an outbreak of African Swine Fever spreading to Haiti from Dominican Republic. The United States Agency for International Development, USAID, and the Haitian government led a campaign, known by the French acronym PEPPADEP, to exterminate all creole pigs. Farmers who were compensated received pigs imported from the United States that were far more vulnerable to Haiti’s environment and were a lot more costly to keep. In the years following the slaughter, levels of enrollment in schools were dramatically lower throughout Haiti’s countryside. Haitian farmers even protested against this as they were not fairly compensated for their loss and the imported pigs were not suitable for the Haitian environment and economy. I definitely can’t say out loud that it’s apparent to anyone with basic comprehension that this was purposely done in order to destabilize our country and grow a dependency on foreign imports. Definitely can’t say that out loud 😶 ・・・ #growninhaiti #creolepig #notEXTINCT #suckonthese #antiforeignpolicy #keepitlocal #seldsufficient #keepyourswine #Sneaky #underhanded #USAID #destabilization #colonialism https://www.instagram.com/p/B9aMGMilC82/?igshid=b2xf0npbcusl

These little cuties just made my morning. They’re so friendly and hilarious with their itty bitty legs. Now that the forest is mostly taking care of itself, I can now think of adding more animals. So far we started with a rooster whose already hand tamed and trained not to scratch where trees are marked off. Now it’s time to start thinking about one of these little piggies. I want to mess with my neighbors by not only hand taming our pig but training it to follow us around willingly. Will be a huge contrast to how people tend to treat their livestock and hoping to show that living with love will in fact give you the results that you seek. ・・・ #growninhaiti #Pig #creolepig #kochonkreyol #fauna #biodiversity #growth #foodforest #agroforestry #biodynamics #haiti #ayiti #teamwork #piggies #organic #mountainlife #homesteading https://www.instagram.com/p/CBLUZ_xF66n/?igshid=158f2y3qbq51b
