These little piglets were literally squeeling for joy as they lept off an open platform in their very own amusement park at owner Peng Fenghui's pig farm in China's Hunan province on Saturday. Their typical day include diving and sliding into water, running around in an obstacle course, and having a generally worry-free life, something they could never dream of in the wild. However, this level of freedom has a steep price tag, both for the pigs and for the farmers. The farmers all know what's in store for the animals. They will mate then be killed and sold for three times the price compared to pork raised in factory farms. All sorts of ethical considerations come into play at Peng Fenghui's pig farm. Does the farmer ever become emotionally attached to his livestock? Is killing the pigs for meat justified by providing them a much better quality of life then they would find in the wild? One thing is clear about Peng Fenghui's pig farm. Word has gotten around that extra care from the farmers has made the pork taste amazing, and demand has never been higher. That's what happens when pigs fly.
