Image Description: Look at this cute little piglet out for a stroll on the farm! He is looking under the leaves for food, digging as he goes with his very sensitive snout. Pig are omnivores, meaning that they eat both animals and plants; in the wild they will forage for roots, flowers, fruits, grasses, and leaves, but when they are kept in confinement they are typically fed soybean or corn meal with added vitamins and minerals. There are about six billion pigs on the planet, making them one of the most numerous mammals on earth. While some pigs, like the Asian pot bellied species, are kept as pets, most other pigs are grown to be eaten; chopped up into hams, bacon, pork chops, roast, and gammon.
