Dear Jacqui, If it is domestic pigs you are interested in, see the following for evidence of pig transhumance and other mobility patterns: Albarella U, Manconi F & Trentacoste A. *2011*. A week on the plateau: pig husbandry, mobility and resource exploitation in central Sardinia. In U. Albarella & A. Trentacoste A. (eds.). *Ethnozooarchaeology. The present and past of human-animal relationships*, 143-59*.* Oxford: Oxbow Books. Less specifically focused on mobility but also possibly relevant: Halstead, P. & Isaakidou, V. *2011*. A pig fed by hand is worth two in the bush: Ethnoarchaeology of pig husbandry in Greece and its archaeological implications. In U. Albarella & A. Trentacoste A. (eds.). *Ethnozooarchaeology.
