The pigs are known as "the swimming pigs" in popular culture, although there are other islands in the Bahamas with swimming pigs.

There appears to be no singular, factual account of how the pigs ended up on the cay. Numerous scenarios involving pirates are attributed to folklore and diverse hypotheses.

Some claim that the pigs were abandoned on Big Major Cay by a group of sailors who intended to return and cook them. However, the sailors never returned; the pigs subsist on the surplus food dumped by passing ships.(Reference Required)

According to another legend, the piglets survived a shipwreck and swam to shore, while other accounts assert that they escaped from a nearby islet. Others claim that the pigs were stocked on the island in the 1990s by residents of nearby Staniel Cay in order to raise them for sustenance, while others claim that the pigs were part of a business plan to attract tourists to the Bahamas. The pigs are currently fed by residents of adjacent islands and tourists, and the island is unofficially known as Pig Beach by locals and visitors.

In 2017, a number of resident pigs were discovered deceased, leading to rumors regarding the cause of death, including claims that tourists fed the pigs alcohol or that the pigs consumed sand.
