The function of the common bile duct in a fetal pig is to move bile from the gall bladder to the small intestine. Bile is a dark green to yellowish brown fluid produced by the liver to aid in digestion.
The duct from a gallbladder on a pig is connected to the bile duct. Bile is transported via the cystic duct to the gallbladder.
The hepatic duct and the cystic duct extend from the gallbladder and merge to form the common bile duct which carries bile to and from the gallbladder.(Bile is collected in tiny ducts that merge to form the bile ducts of the hepatic triads, which, in turn, join to form the hepatic duct, which carries bile from the liver)
Porcine bile extract comes from a pig's gallbladder. However, it is produced in the liver of the pig. It is used in several vitamins and herbal supplements.

It stores and releases bile, which helps digest fats
The liver and gallbladder are important to the digestion of a pig. These organs create and store bile which is a secretion that aids in the digestion of the pig.
The gallbladder is connected to the liver. The liver creates bile which helps in the digestion of fats. The bile is stored in the gallbladder and then the gallbladder excretes it through the common bile duct, into the duodenum (small intestine) where it is put to use. During the storage of the bile, it becomes more concentrated. In humans, people can develop gallstones (similar to kidney stones in one's kidney) and results in the gallbladder being removed. People can live normally without the gallbladder as it is not an essential organ in the digestive system. (Note** The digestive system of a pig is almost identical to that of a human)
The thoracic duct of a fetal pig is used to transport food into the stomach. This is present before the development of the esophagus.

The gall bladder is like a sack under the liver, and it stores bile, which is essential for digestion.
