Hi there! Not every house reared a ducor or pig, may be every christian house, Goa does not belong to christians only, My Syrian colleague read your article and wanted to know the true story. Will you please correct it. Thanks Nick Gracias -----Original Message----- In the land of pork eaters By Domnic Fernandes In the not-do-distant past, every house in Goa reared pets like the mazor (cat), sunnem (dog), bokddi (goat), dukor (pig) and the like. This article is dedicated to the mothers of the yesteryears, who worked hard on domesticating animals to help supplement family incomes and bring up their children. -------------------------------------------------- Read all Goanet messages at: http://www.goanet.org/archive.php?name=News&list=goanet ------------------------------------------------------- Goanet recommends, and is proud to be associated with, 'Domnic's Goa' - A nostalgic romp through a bygone era.
