If the requirements for kosher food are animals to have split hooves and chew their cud would a pig that chewed its be considered kosher?

No, a pig that chews its cud would still not be considered kosher.

Here's why:

* Split hooves are a requirement, but not the only one. While a pig chewing its cud would meet one of the requirements for kosher animals, it would still lack the other crucial element: split hooves. Pigs have solid hooves.

* Kosher laws are based on a combination of factors. The kosher laws aren't simply about physical characteristics. They are based on a complex set of religious and cultural rules that go beyond just physical traits.

So, even if a pig somehow developed the ability to chew its cud, it would still be considered non-kosher due to its lack of split hooves.
