- "He is a pig! He is a savage! Do not believe a word he says."
- ―King Frane
Swines, also called pigs, were quadrupedal mammals. They main physical characteristics, including their blunt-ended nose, large size, and hooves, were archetypal of porcine species.[1] To compare a person to a pig was an insult, at least amongst Rutanians[2] and Calian Humans.[3] The expression "pearls before swine" referred to giving things of value to those who would not understand or appreciate it.[4]
