Note 2081 — BOOK VIII. THE NATURE OF THE TERRESTRIAL ANIMALS. (continued 2)
John Bostock translation
Ælian, De Anim. Nat. B. xvi. c. 37, says, that no boar, either wild or tame, is produced in India, and that the Indians never use the flesh of this animal, as they would regard the use of it with as much horror as of human flesh.—B. The “Sus babiroussa” is probably meant by Pliny.
