The wild pigs of Africa
There are six species of wild pigs in Africa: common and desert warthogs, bushpigs, red river hog, giant forest hogs and North African boarsafricageographic.com
It's a prevalent meat in the Congo basin (purple/green/yellow area). Europeans didn't enter that region of the continent until the 1800s (they mostly stayed on the coast before that), and Islam didn't really spread in Central Africa the way it spread throughout the Sahel.
Restrictions on eating pork are driven by religion. It's not an intrinsic part of the African identity.
