Remember the scene in The Wizard of Oz (on Auntie Em’s farm, before the Technicolor kicks in) where Dorothy is messing around the hog pen, loses her balance and falls in?
Recall that farmhand Bert Lehr/the ‘Cowardly Lion’ saves her, but after setting her down, starts sweating bullets.
I asked my parents why he was ‘vapor-locking’ and Mom, a farm girl, said, “Because feeding hogs will bite.”
So the way I see it, it’s eat or be eaten. Sorry Arnold!
We’ve been toying with the idea of raising a couple of pigs, but I’ve heard so many bad stories about attacks that I am leery of trying it.
