I can't remember how many hogs I necropsied only to find they had the telltale characteristics of gossypol poisoning. Cottonseed meal fed to cattle was cheap and efficient but one had to make sure the hogs were not getting into the feed.

From what I can tell, pigs are not ruminants, missing one stomach. Neocallimastix is an incredibly interesting fungus, found only in ruminants, it has many flagella allowing it to swim through the digestive tract and is necessary for digestion. It is passed from the mother to the the progeny. so much to learn, so little time.....
