She'd have used a selfie stick, shurely?
Someone grabbed it to stick the pig.

I assume as they are about to slaughter a pig and it was deemed not 'family friendly' that they thought it might upset people.

How do they think bacon and sausages are made?

You'd be surprised, I remember reading something years ago about a survey where I think 1 in 3 people didn't know bacon came from a pig and some other ridiculous number didn't know milk came from cows.

I grew up in a farm, I've helped slaughter pigs, sheep and calves. I guess I must be some kind of exotic monster to some people.

I think "exotic monster" may be a bit strong, but, there is a BIG disconnect between peoples understanding of just where their food (meat in particular) comes from, in my experience.

Even on TV farming programs, the animals are talked about as if they are pets, when, in reality, they are just so many Kg of Sunday Roasts or Lamb Chops.
