Introducing the captivating 'Domestic Pig' poster print from our Media Storehouse collection, featuring the evocative image by renowned photographer Fabio Pupin from FLPA Images. This powerful photograph portrays a domesticated boar meandering through a degraded dehesa habitat, once used for raising fighting bulls but now abandoned due to decreased demand. The dehesa, a traditional agricultural system in Salamanca, Spain, has suffered greatly as pig farming has taken over, leading to devastating environmental consequences. This thought-provoking poster print not only showcases the beauty of this unique ecosystem but also raises awareness of the impact of human activities on the natural world. Bring this poignant reminder into your home or office and inspire important conversations about sustainability and conservation.

From Bulls to Boars - When Pigs Take Over the Spanish Plateau!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo, we witness a hilarious twist of fate in the heartland of Spain's Castile and Leon region. Meet our unlikely protagonist - a Domestic Pig turned boar, strutting through a once prestigious dehesa habitat. But how did this comical transformation come to be? As demand for fighting bulls dwindled, breeders made an unexpected pivot towards pig breeding. Little did they know that their decision would have unintended consequences on the environment! With these new porcine inhabitants roaming free-range, their mischievous antics are leaving quite an impact on the land. The image captures the essence of change as autumn hues paint a picturesque backdrop against the eroded soil beneath our hoofed hero's trotters. The Mediterranean climate adds an extra touch of irony as summer transitions into fall. This cheeky swine has unwittingly become an emblematic symbol of environmental degradation caused by man-made alterations. As he explores his transformed surroundings with curiosity and mischief in his eyes, one can't help but ponder if he fully comprehends his role in reshaping this once pristine landscape. So next time you find yourself strolling through Salamanca's degraded dehesa habitat, keep your eyes peeled for these European changing male animals who've traded bullfighting for hogging all the attention!
