The
Mangalica (sometimes spelled
Mangalitsa (UK) or
Mangalitza (USA)) is a Hungarian
breed of domestic
pig. It was developed in the mid-nineteenth century by cross breeding Hungarian breeds from
Szalonta and
Bakony with the Serbian
Šumadija breed. The Mangalica pig grows a thick wooly coat similar to that of a sheep. The only other pig breed noted for having a long coat is the
extinct Lincolnshire Curly Coat of England.
