These little piglets may not be especially exotic, but they are a welcome addition to the Zoo Basel family. As well as these "mini-schweinn", the zoo is home to a variety of animals of the porcine persuasion (if only by name) including Wild Boar, Porcupines, and Guinea Pigs.

“Pork”upines and guinea “pigs,” very funny — both rodents, not even-toed ungulates like the pigs are. You kidders!

The name does come from the French for “spined pig.” I wonder if the zoo has an aardvark (“earth pig”).
