I'd heard the Ni-Vanuatu traded pigs for wives, but I'd hoped they would have been bigger than chickens. Just kidding. In Epai, the pig must have tusks before it can be traded for a wife. And "trade" may not be a fair word. Traditionally the groom must give the bride's family a pig. Perhaps one of the affects of wage will be bigger pigs for better wives?
