In Frank Herbert's Dune novels, a Slig is a slug/pig hybrid created by the Bene Tleilaxu. They are bred for their meat (described as "The sweetest meat this side of heaven,") and for their ability to feed on and control garbage. The Tleilaxu themselves do not eat Slig meat, which they regard according to their strict religious practices as "unclean."
