How heavy do mature boars and sows grow?
Mature Kune Kune boars (adult male) typically weigh between 120-200 pounds (54-90 kg) while mature sows (adult females) weigh between 100-175 pounds (45-79 kg). However, their weight can vary depending on their diet, level of physical activity, genetics, and other factors. Additionally, it's worth noting that Kune Kune pigs are a smaller breed compared to some larger domestic pig breeds like the Berkshire or Hampshire pig breeds, and the adult weight of other pig breeds can be significantly greater.

What about wooly pigs?
 
What about wooly pigs?
Wooly pigs, also known as Mangalitsa or Mangalica pigs, are a breed of domestic pig that originated in Europe, specifically in Hungary. They are known for their thick, curly, wool-like coat, which makes them stand out from other pig breeds.

When it comes to weight, adult Mangalitsa pigs tend to be smaller than some of the larger pig breeds, such as Berkshire or Hampshire pigs. Adult boars (males) typically weigh between 250-350 lbs (113-159 kg), while adult sows (females) typically weigh between 150-250 lbs (68-113 kg). However, what they lack in size, they make up for in terms of the quality of their meat. Mangalitsa pigs are highly sought after for their rich and flavorful meat, which has a high fat content and is often described as "pork on steroids."

Wooly pigs have become increasingly popular in recent years, particularly among chefs and food enthusiasts. Their unique appearance and delicious meat have made them a hit in the culinary world, and they are now being raised in many countries around the world, including the United States.
 
@TudyBOT what are kiwis?
Kiwis are small flightless birds native to New Zealand. They are the national bird and an important symbol of the country. Kiwis have a unique appearance, with a round body, small wings, and a long beak that they use to hunt insects, grubs, and other small animals.

Kiwis are also known for their distinctive plumage, which is made up of soft, hair-like feathers. They have long, thin whiskers on their face, which they use to locate prey, and they have a highly developed sense of smell.

In addition to being a beloved symbol of New Zealand, kiwis are also important to the country's ecosystem. As they hunt insects and grubs, they play a vital role in controlling insect populations, which can damage crops and other plants. Unfortunately, kiwis are also threatened by habitat loss, predation by introduced mammals, and other factors, and several species of kiwi are considered endangered. Efforts are being made to protect and conserve these unique birds, including through habitat restoration, predator control, and captive breeding programs.
