Wilma:

Pigs all have bristles, and some of us can really put on a hair show.

Mangalitsa pigs look wooly, with curly hair all over.

Hereford pigs wear a red coat, and Hampshires have a belt.

The breed called White Pigs are…white.

Kunes are colored – ginger, black, and white; belted, spotted, mixed.

Kunes are hairy – bristly, wavy, smooth, and shiny.

Kunes are beautiful.

 

Mona:

Kune hair galore.

Colors, patterns, and charm.

Cows got none of that.
