HOW DOES ANTIBIOTIC USE IN PIGS IMPACT THE CONSUMER A BRIEFING ON THE LINK TO PUBLIC HEALTH CONCERNS OVER DRUG-RESISTANT BACTERIA AND ENVIRONMENTAL DEGRADATION DUE TO HOG WASTE “What are we eating?” As consumers consider their dietary options, this is a common question asked across the country on a daily basis. As the demand for animal protein rises locally and globally at unprecedented rates, more often than not, the question of what are we eating tends to be answered with beef, chicken, or…

phylogenetic aspect of why captive monogastric animals perform abnormal and vice behaviours, with a focus on swine. Phylogenetic characteristics that are going to be examined include breed differences in behaviour, and variations in behaviour between captive pigs and wild boars. The phylogenetic explanation concentrates on genetic inheritance, selection for specific traits, breed influence on behaviour, and species differences. What Are Abnormal and Vice Behaviours and Why Do They Develop?…

obstacles can range from internal conflicts to adversaries who feel threatened by (or do not understand) the protagonist. The main character must pass the impediments in their path, and learn to understand who they are in the process. Verlyn Flieger's Pig Tale shows its audience the life and trials of a young girl named Mokie on her path to adolescence. Ever since she was born, Mokie has been subjected to multiple injustices uncommon to most at the hands of both children and adults. Born and…

as to which constitutes a set of stalls. These structures are called farrowing stalls. These stalls are where the mother sows (a sow is a female pig) are taken to give birth. The stalls are set up in such a way that the walls on the inside do not come all the way to the ground so that the baby pigs can go under the walls to another chamber called a “pig bump” to get away from the mother if she is in a foul…

White’s “Death of a Pig” is a story of a premature death and the subsequent suffering of a pig and his caretaker. White illustrates the hardship and irony of failing to raise a pig properly, and having the animal die of natural causes, opposed to the pig dying in the normal scheduled slaughtering. White’s employment of the aforementioned irony provokes a discussion on the ethical nature of raising animals for consumption. White’s text causes one to wonder how the natural death of a pig can cause…

guinea pigs as pets, you aren't alone. Many are attracted to the idea of having guinea pigs as pets, mainly due to their cuteness. Not only that, they're actually one of the easiest pets to own. But even they will need some attention for both their health and safety. As with all pets, being a responsible owner is always important. Before you go to your local pet store and bring home a guinea pig, you should educate yourself on some of the basic requirements for taking care of a guinea pig. Even…

dissected a fetal pig to get a better understanding of it and how it relates to us. We named the pig the great name of Wilbur since he was a male. He was a full term, or ready to be born, since he measured out to be over 30 centimeters. Then after we identified every we needed on Wilbur we started scoring on the stomach to get into the systems past the integumentary. The skin is the integumentary system, it is the largest organ in the human body. We had to cut the skin on the pig to see the…

really eating? These questions have sparked my interest in the food industry and how food goes from production to your plate. Chickens, cows, pigs, and other farm animals are subject to abuse in these meat farms. Many never get to live outdoors and most of them are usually forced to live in tiny cages or warehouse floors without even seeing daylight. Chickens and pigs are crammed into small cages that often bruise or break the animals’ bones and allow them very little space to move. These…

Moreover, hunting the pig drives the plot as an allegorical novel due to the long metaphors current in the scenes where the hunters are killing pigs. Consequently, the long metaphor starts when Jack, as well as the other boys, initially cannot kill a pig because the enormity of the event is weighing on the his consciousnesses. When Jack, Ralph and Simon cannot kill a pig, they feel guilt because they tried to take the life of another creature. Seemingly, Jack only paused for a second, “the pause…
