British Lop Pig

The British Lop, also known as the Devon Lop, Cornish White or Long White Lop-eared pig, is a traditional British pig breed that originated on the Cornwall-Devon border near Tavistock in Englands West Country. It is a large, white-skinned pig with lop ears hanging forward over the face, a heavier-set body than the similar Welsh or Landrace breeds, and mature boars around 350 kilograms against about 300 kilograms for sows. Bred to be largely self-sufficient at pasture, it is still commonly raised outdoors, valued for a gentle temperament and a good ability to develop lean weight; its first herd book was published in 1921, and it is now listed as a rare breed with priority conservation status by the Rare Breeds Survival Trust.
