P.S.
In my previous post, I should probably have mentioned that suillivore is four syllables, pronounced roughly soo-ILL-i-voar. If it were three syllables, it would be swillivores, which would be a good description of pigs, not eaters of pigs.

“suilla”? Makes one wonder if the traditional hog call, “soo-eee!” actally originated with somebody who was educated in Latin…

That’s okay, I keep reading it as “Sullivore” (ala a certain famously excitable pundit), and that just disturbs me.
