KUNEKUNE PIGS AT CAMP SKIPPING PIG

Rooty is a young feral pig who arrived with the Red Wattle Hogs. He has a wonderful disposition and runs like a dog when called. He gets so excited over scratches that he whines. Rooty came up from Florida where feral pigs are considered a nuisance. Many who can't be rescued are used to train dogs for hunting. They are put into rings or pits with dogs who are encouraged to attack them. This cruel "sport" is called Pig/Dog fighting and whole families actually go to watch. I can't imagine the mentality of the people who participate in this or the others who sell pigs to be used for this purpose. Only unthinking humans could come up with something like this. We're fortunate to have Rooty join our group and I'm sure he'd feel the same if he realized his other possibilities.
