WHY WON'T MY DWARFS BECOME BEARDED PIGS?
First things first.
Do you have the PIG_BEARDED entry in a text file with [OBJECT:CREATURE] at the top within your raw folder? If not, create a new text file in that folder. Call it whatever, but creature_pig_extended would work.
Next, do you have the MAN_BEARD_PIG entry in the same text file?
Finally, has the DWARF in the [CREATURE:] in the ENTITY:MOUNTAIN been switched to MAN_BEARD_PIG?
If yes to all those, it might be something else. I didn't think to give them a biome to spawn in and the COMMON_DOMESTIC tage might be causing that.
Here's an updated version along with the obligatory giant animal.

This will work for both boars and sows. Shouldn't it be rather (tusks as per elephant, different castes as per ewe/ram) like this?
Also, maybe plain wild pigs should be listed separately? Tuskier, with bigger boars, less [MILKABLE:...] and not [BENIGN], though [TRAINABLE_WAR].
True enough on all counts, but elephants as well as wild boars currently have tusks regardless of gender in the raw.
