Shotgun
Schrotschwein referred to a domestic pig intended for slaughter or already slaughtered , which, unlike a bacon pig , was relatively small and lean and did not produce fatty bacon , only the so-called bacon .
The term was mostly used in Lower Saxony in the 19th century. Today it is a historical term that is no longer used.
