“…The limited number of pig templates that do exist include the domestic pig (Saikali et al, 2010), the neonatal piglet (Conrad et al, 2014), and the Göttingen minipig (Watanabe et al, 2001). The Yucatan is known to be gentle, has an adult weight ranging from approximately 70 to 90 kg (150 to 200 lbs), and has been used extensively for developing surgical and experimental techniques as well as models for metabolic syndrome, biocompatability, skin lesions, pharmacology, toxicology, and cardiovascular disease (Estrada et al, 2008;Eubanks et al, 2006;Curtasu et al, 2019;Mattern et al, 2007;Quesson et al, 2011;Montezuma et al, 2006;Pak et al, 2006;Lin et al, 1998;Hurtig et al, 2019;Swindle et al, 1990Swindle et al, , 2011Witczak et al, 2006;Lopez et al, 2017).…”
