The large intestine is essentially the same in all mammals who eat and digest solid foods. The large intestine of the mink is simply smaller than that of a human.
There is an organ, known as the caecum (or cecum), that is attched to the large intestine. It is important in an herbivores digestive system, as it helps break down raw plants. As herbivores, pigs are benefitted by this organs presence. In humans, however, the caecum has become a vestigial organ (the appendix).
In adult humans, the small intestine is around 7m long, and about 3cm wide. The large intestine is about 1.5 metres long and around 6-10cm wide. The large intestine is called 'large' because it is wider than the small intestine, it is not longer.
