This is a childhood treasure given to me by my mother's distant cousin (their grandmothers were cousins--that's really far back).
I have no clue about his name, but he was a botanist who discovered a new grass species in . . . Peru perhaps? It was later named after him.
He bought this pig in South America and passed it along to me the one and only time I met him, when I was about 8 years old. I was very impressed to be given something from a foreign country.
