# Zhang et al. (2022) on page 1042 write:
# "The age at first pregnancy varies in the wild from about 10 to
# 20 months [26], while boars begin rut when they are three to five
# years old. The first rut age of 4–5 years was documented in
# Russian wild boars [27], and 3–4 years was recorded in Chinese
# wild boars [28]. Pigs are multiparous animals, and the gestation
# period lasts about 114–130 days [29].
# ...
# Therefore, we set the generation interval of pigs as 3 years,
# which is roughly equivalent to the average age of
# the first pregnancy in sows and the beginning of rut in boars
# plus the pregnant gestation period of sows."
