They also used pigskin as temporary skin grafts for burn victims. It's closest to human skin.
Also pigs can get sunburned. </div></div>
I pointed out the question of pig flesh to the Doc up top as well as the pig organs.

I don't eat pork NOT for religious reasons but because pigs are very nasty animals. I have seen them drink the urine from another pig as they urinate and eat and wallow in their feces. They will also eat another dead pig if you leave it in the pen. Pigs will eat just about anything... nothing is off limits for them, besides they stink.

HELP MAKE A DIFFERENCE Raising Grasscutters and Goats


Students at the Bishop Forson School are learning about raising goats and will soon be learning how to raise a small animal in the guinea pig and porcupine family called 'grasscutter'. The children all know this animal, because it is an important protein source in Ghana. Unfortunately, the animal is often hunted illegally and through dangerous means. Hunting grasscutter poses serious environmental problems, as grasslands are set on fire to drive the animals out. These fires can get out of control and also burn homes and do other damage.

Raising grasscutter at the school will prove educational and also provide food for the children. As the program grows, it may become a sustainable income source for the school.

Through targeted fundraising, Pagus:Africa is providing start-up funds and oversight for this exciting project.

Do kids at your school want to see how they can help make a difference in Africa? Contact us to talk about this and other important projects they can be part of.

Our mission is to strengthen poor rural communities in Ghana, W. Africa through targeted projects in education, health and poverty reduction. We believe the most effective ways to facilitate long term sustainable change is through education of children and through direct help and advice to local responsible non-profit organizations. We seek to empower communities to improve their schools, water sources and health conditions.
