where do kune kune pigs come from originally
Kunekune The kunekune is believed to have descended from an Asian domestic breed introduced to New Zealand in the early 19th century by whalers or traders. They differ markedly from the feral pig of European origin known in New Zealand as a "Captain Cooker".[3] The native M훮ori people of New Zealand adopted kunekune: the word kunekune means "fat and round" in the M훮ori language.[4]
