The species is now one of the widest-ranging mammals in the world, as well as the most widespread Suina, suiform. It has been assessed as least concern on the IUCN Red List due to its wide range, high numbers, and adaptability to a diversity of habitats. It has become an invasive species in part of its introduced range.

Pigs (Three Different Ones)
"Pigs (Three Different Ones)" is a song from Pink Floyd's 1977 album ''Animals''. In the album's three parts, "Dogs", "Pigs" and "Sheep", pigs represent the people whom the band considers to be at the top of the social ladder, the ones with wealth and power; they also manipulate the rest of society and encourage them to be viciously competitive and cut-throat, so the pigs can remain powerful. Summary The song's three verses each present a different "pig". According to Waters, the first verse's "pig man" refers to businessmen in general, whereas the second verse refers to conservative politician Margaret Thatcher, leader of the opposition at that time. The third verse clearly identifies its subject as being morality campaigner Mary Whitehouse, who is described as a "house proud town mouse" who has to "keep it all on the inside." In 1992, on the Westwood One radio special ''Pink Floyd: The 25th Anniversary Special'', Waters told Jim Ladd that the "Whitehouse" mentioned had nothing ...

Pig (song)
"Pig" is a Dave Matthews Band song from the album '' Before These Crowded Streets''. The song evolved from an earlier tune entitled "Don't Burn the Pig", which was written about a television program Dave Matthews viewed in England where pigs were burned to test their reaction to pain. After 11 live performances between 1996 and 1998, "Don't Burn the Pig" was recorded in the studio during the ''Before These Crowded Streets'' sessions, and then the song reworked itself into "Pig", with the same notion in mind; however, it interpreted more of a carpe diem theme. A 33-second studio jam is heard at the end of the studio track, based on "Deed Is Done", an early song by the band, and " Anyone Seen the Bridge?", a segue jam that debuted live in 1996. Dave Matthews Band has performed "Pig" since 1998, up through the summer of 1999. The song did not return to live set lists until spring 2002, where it was played the most during that year than any other year. Since the song's debut, "Pig" h ...
