" Plentiful. The village pigs of Southern India are probably descend- 

 ed from wild stock, while the variations in skulls of wild pigs from 

 various parts of India is very probably due to occasional interbreeding 

 with domestic pigs which would also account for the young of village pigs 

 being occasionally striped." — G. C. S.
