Pig terms?

Explanation:
Understanding pig terminology involves the specific words used for the species, sexes, and ages of pigs. For pigs, the general group is swine. A female used for breeding is a sow, and an adult male used for breeding is a boar. A young female that hasn’t farrowed yet is a gilt. A castrated male pig is a barrow. A young pig is simply a piglet. This set of terms is unique to pigs, which is why it fits the question. The other options list terms for dogs, cats, or horses, not pigs.
