The least likely reason why pigs have been chosen as donors for humans in the process of xenotransplantation is the cost effectiveness of raising DNA as human quick breeding. Any animal can be used for xenotransplantation process if cost effectiveness is the principal concern. The principal concern in xenotransplantation is the need to prevent virus and other pathogens that can jump human-animal barriers and be a threat to humans.
