EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 80 from Recherches pour servir à l'histoire naturelle des Mammifères, Vols. 1-4 (1868-74) by Drs. Henri Milne-Edwards (1800-1885) and Alphonse Milne-Edwards (1835-1900) presents a detailed illustration of Sus moupinensis, the Moupin hog or Chinese wild boar. This natural history masterpiece showcases the anatomy and observational accuracy of the wild boar, a member of the Phacochoerinae subfamily within the Artiodactyl order and the Eutheria class. The Moupin hog, native to China, is an even-toed ungulate and an important species in the Mammalia family. This drawing, created during the 19th century, offers an intriguing glimpse into the natural world of the past. The meticulous attention to detail is evident in the rendering of the hog's muscular structure, skeletal system, and distinctive features such as its bristly coat and powerful tusks. Henri Milne-Edwards, a French zoologist, and his nephew Alphonse Milne-Edwards, a naturalist, collaborated on this comprehensive work, which aimed to document the natural history of mammals. Their groundbreaking research and illustrations continue to be a valuable resource for scientists, students, and enthusiasts of natural history. This image of the Moupin hog is a testament to the artists' skill and the duo's dedication to the scientific exploration of the natural world. The intricate details and precise annotations provide a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of a wild boar as it was understood during the 19th century.
