00taz11 39 Posted March 7, 2009 Report Share Posted March 7, 2009 Pigs can be used to get rid of human bodies remove the meat from the bone starve the pigs for three weeks then feed them the human flesh they can eat over 30lb of flesh a minute Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Simoman 110 Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 they are very good eating pigs as well we had some home fed bacon from one over xmas it was very very tasty I meant that if you wanted a pig to read for slaughter there are far more suitable breeds, Kune kune pigs are mostly bred as pets nowdays......
