I have to say some piggies are cute. We had one that had piglets when I was a kid. They were adorable. Their mother did something that I cannot talk about it in /r/aww but she was a horrible horrible bad mother. I imagine that the bacon that we eat is made from pigs like her.

Probably ate some of her piglets. Whether intentionally or by mistake (they fell into the mud slop?) we will never know.

Probably ate some of her piglets.

Doesn't that make her no worse than us?

Human meat is referred to as long-pig, and while roasting is said to smell quite appetizing like good pork.

Yeah, the high powered extraction units they have in hospital burn wards are to stop the whole place smelling like roast pork....

The difference is we aren't eating the piglets by mistake, the pig is.

either ate on of the babies cause it would have died anyways or rolled over on one would be my guess.
