Why were pigs chosen to be the main negative subject of the common pearls before swine quote that another way of saying not to give important stuff to people who won't cherish it?

Mine is Grumpig. I like this psychic pig with elements of that "Pearls before Swine" quote from the Christian Bible that I was named after. It wears a lot of pearls on itself, and it's a good dancer. The abilities it has imply that it's a foodie species that goes at its own whims and tries to set its own pace for life.
