Solution

The correct option is D Coprozoic
Pigs are called as coprozoic because they live in dung or mud. Most of the tapeworms are present in dung or mud because these tapeworm larva and eggs are present in infected animal stool. That is the reason pigs pick up tapeworm infections. So, option A is correct.
