  1. The Euskal Txerria or Basque, French: Pie Noir du Pays Basque, is a breed of pig native to the Basque Country. As suggested by its name in French, the breed is piebald, black and pink. What is today called the Basque pig is one of several historical breeds or breed types kept by Basque peoples, and it was consolidated under the name only in the 1920s. Though they were relatively common in the early 20th century, Basque pigs had nearly disappeared by 1981, with fewer than 100 breeding sows left.
