How did the history of Bama fragrant pig come about?

Bama fragrant pig originated from local pigs, and it is said to have been domesticated from wild boars. People call it "winter melon pig", "banana pig" or "two headed black". Due to its fine bones, crispy skin, and tender meat, it is highly appreciated by outsiders for its freshness and fragrance. It was gradually named "Fragrant Pig" and officially named "Bama Fragrant Pig" in 1982 when it was included in the "Guangxi Livestock and Poultry Breeds Chronicles". In the past, due to the obstruction of transportation information and the feudal ideology of "not borrowing seeds", the masses have always adopted the closed breeding method of keeping offspring and mating mothers for highly inbreeding. After hundreds of years of inheritance, this excellent breed with pure genes and unique appearance has finally been created. Meanwhile, as a result of long-term natural selection, a large number of harmful genes have been gradually eliminated, achieving stable genetic performance and eliminating stillbirths and abnormal phenomena. Due to the fact that Bama fragrant pig still retains a certain degree of wildness and is an early maturing breed, people still use inbreeding and a certain degree of inbreeding in today's production practice to maintain its unique body shape, appearance, production, and meat quality performance
