Why a whole page about pigs? Granted, this highly specialized subject may at first seem a bit far-fetched, but it it is an excellent example of the many different animal groups Barks placed in his stories. An abundance of both real-looking and caricated animals in different shapes populate his panels fulfilling a multitude of purposes. Many of the pigs are in plain view - many others are not so easily detected. This page will no doubt show you that he drew far more than you recall!
So, this page consisting of just one animal group - loosely divided into a mere 10 subgroups - has been created in order to draw your attention to Barks' staggering versatility. It should stand as a representative for many similar pages of such animals as cows, goats and dogs. They are everywhere. You just have to look for them...
