      There's a great book called "Lesser Beasts" that dives in to the cultural history of pigs (mostly in Western societies).

      Related specifically to the pig and our relationship to them, the book Lesser Beasts (https://smile.amazon.com/Lesser-Beasts-Snout-Tail-History/dp...) is a great read.
