As a child pigs were my favorite animal. Who couldn’t love these creatures and I love how the farmer makes them part of his family. These pictures are beautiful. My dad took me to a farm as a child and asked me if I knew what happend to pigs and why they were on the farm. He also asked me if I liked eating bacon and ham – he knew I loved it. He explained the realities to me and asked if I wanted bacon for breakfast. It took me the four hour drive to finally say yes. He then told me he was glad to hear it because if I didn’t those pigs wouldn’t be on a farm. He is an economist and shared several of these “Aha” moments as I got older, but these pictures detail and show what smart and fun creatures they are.

I don’t know how that farmer can cuddle up to his pigs and then have them for breakfast :/. I was a vegetarian for a couple of years, but I began craving meat so badly that I stopped. I feel bad when I hear that pigs are are at least as smart as dogs, but so far, my love of bacon has always won out.
