Speaking of pigs, we are no strangers. They bring rich and delicious meat to humans, and some pet pigs bring more spiritual companionship. For pigs, we are all stuck in the impression of cuteness and dumbness. Especially the feeling of cute pets makes many girls willing to compare themselves with pigs. But have you ever thought that under the appearance of "harmless humans and animals", there may actually be a horrible heart hidden, because pigs are capable of attacking and wounding people, and there have even been many incidents of pig cannibalism.
"Daily Star" once reported an incident of pig cannibalism. Terry Vance Garner is a 69-year-old farmer living in Oregon, USA. The farm is located In the countryside of Cook County, after finishing his farm work, his favorite thing to do is to feed the pigs. He has treated the piglets at home as children. He gives them all the delicious food and never hungry for them. Therefore, the pigs They grow very large. Under normal circumstances, local adult boars are usually around 350 pounds (about 317 pounds), while some of the pigs in Terry’s family weigh 635 pounds!
For these super fat pigs, Terry’s family recommends selling or slaughtering them, but the kind-hearted Terry disagrees. Terry will feed them for a day. He didn't come back. The family looked everywhere but no one was seen. In the end, the police found his dentures, clothes, and even part of his body in the fence of the pigsty. It is hard to imagine whether Terry was suddenly sick or was deliberately attacked by a big pig. According to Terry's brother Michael, about a year ago, Terry was viciously attacked by a big pig because he accidentally stepped on a little pig. It was a terrifying thought!
Coincidentally, pig cannibalism has also occurred in other parts of the world. According to the "Daily Mail" report, the 71-year-old Polish old man Krzysztov was unfortunately killed by 12 giants. The pigs ate. These pigs are called Mangalitsa pigs, which are directly evolved from wild boars. They have not been improved in Europe. They are large and round in appearance and resemble sheep. They are currently the only pigs with long hair in the world. It is the fattest pig in the world,Fat accounts for 70% of the entire body weight, and lard is also farmed on a large scale. However, with the decrease in the demand for lard, Mangalica pigs have almost disappeared, and now they can only be reproduced and bred by human protection, so these pigs are extremely precious.
On the day of the incident, the old man planned to go to a well on the farm to fetch water. However, an accident happened and he suddenly fainted while bending his head down to carry the bucket. Then these 12 giant pigs just passed by him, and the old man was also gnawed brutally. When he was found by the neighbors, he was left with a pile of bones and skull fragments, and some small bones in his hands and feet were not even found!
After the incident, the prosecutor guessed that the deceased might have a heart attack, while the neighbor guessed that it was because the old man forgot to feed the pigs and was eaten by the hungry pigs. A spokesperson for the local prosecutor told the media that the old man had Most likely, he was eaten by his own pigs. Due to the huge size of the pig, it caused a certain degree of panic to the locals afterwards. Some people suggested killing the cannibal pigs to reduce the threat to nearby residents, but the veterinarian worried that these expensive pork might enter the market, and the prosecutor was also ambiguous about this. A local pig sanctuary said that these pigs are even their own. Without eating the corpses of his companions, how could he eat the corpses of people?
If pigs eat dead people are passive reasons, then attacking living people can show that they have a certain threat. In July of this year, a 1-month-old from Uganda Rake District The newborn was eaten alive by a pig raised by his father at home. On the day of the incident, the child’s mother went to the banana plantation to pick vegetables, leaving the baby alone on the bed. Not long after leaving, a domestic pig slipped in from the back door of the house and attacked the baby sleeping on the bed and ate it. His head, arms, and stomach are still lying on a baby mattress to rest after eating.
When the mother returns to the room to feed the baby,Only found the pig on the bloody mattress, and some remnants of the baby's body. She called the villagers to grab the pig and put it to death, and found the baby's fingers and some other body parts in the pig's stomach. People were shocked and overwhelmed, and the angry villagers burned the pig to ashes.
So here comes the question. In our eyes, the image of a pig is very cute. The long nose is fleshy and the big ears look naive, so why do pigs eat people? Does it really have the power to eat people?
Studies have shown that pigs are the third domesticated domesticated animals after dogs and sheep. It has a history of 7,500 years. In these thousands of years, it has been continuously screened by humans and left meek. The fertility is strong, remove the grumpy and poor fertility. Even so, it is difficult to completely eliminate its wildness in the bone marrow, because domestic pigs are domesticated from wild boars. Needless to say, wild boars are powerful. In the eyes of hunters, "one pig, two bears and three tigers" is the best. The proof, especially sows, is quite irritable during the estrus, pregnancy and lactation period.
Besides the feeding habits of domestic pigs, they still continue the tradition of wild boar omnivorous. They are happy to accept plant fruits, insects and bird eggs, and even eat carrion without food. When I was young, I also played pigweed , especially the leaves of the Broussonetia papyrifera are their favorite. Of course, the fruit is the best. Sometimes a lot of lobsters are caught to feed the pigs.
Speaking of this, it reminds me of the horrible moments in my childhood, that is, I went to the pigsty with my father to clean up, but the strange thing is that wherever my father goes, the pigs hide away for minutes, and I even hold my hands. Holding a shovel will often be "welcomed" by pigs. It can be seen that pigs are not as stupid as everyone thinks. They still know how to choose. Bullying and fearing hardship is the best word to describe it, especially a pig with a huge body. Intentionally attack the weak. So it’s not that pigs don’t eat meat, but whether they have the opportunity to choose!
The power of the pig not only comes from the appearance of the body,Thanks to its teeth, friends who have eaten pork head meat should know that the teeth of pigs are actually quite powerful, and this strength is often concealed by the long nose. Studies have shown that the bite force of an adult pig is at least about 300 pounds (272 kg), and they can be misaligned to achieve the effect of grinding the bitten object. So how powerful is its lethality?
Let me give you an example. 20 years ago, pigs in rural areas basically used brick and tiled pig pens, and the ground was also cement. But what you can’t think of is that pigs can actually be There is a big hole in it. They rely on their own pig nose, which is not only strong but also wear-resistant. What they need is bricks buried in the ground. They will put them in their mouths and chew for fun. I heard it wrong, just chew bricks and eat it. It tasted crunchy and crunchy, like a lollipop in his hand at the time. Just imagine anyone who has harder bones than bricks?
Sometimes the reality is so surprising. Who would have thought that domestic pigs can eat people? But rare does not mean that it will never happen. Perhaps domestic pigs are indeed very docile, but they also did not get a suitable opportunity. Once encountered, they will stimulate the only wildness in the bone marrow to attack humans and be driven by the instinct of eating goods. I started gnawing, and that's how the tragedy happened.
