Description (Initial Observations): Rogs, the most common meat and domesticated animal in Meriga, are descendants of the pig. They hold the same place in the farming community that cows do in our time. Roughly the same size as a normal pig, they have elongated snouts, similar to an anteater, but not as long as an elephant. They have a mane of fur that grows over their necks and shoulders and down the ridge of their spine. They suffer from periodic amnesia, although most farmers just assume that they are stupid. The milk from a rog is slightly sweet and very nutritious. Its skin and fur can be made into cloth.
