US farmer eaten by 50-stone pigs

:eek:

A farmer in the US has apparently been eaten by his own pigs.

Terry Garner (70) never returned after he set out to feed his animals on his farm near the Oregon coast.

A family member later found his dentures and pieces of his body in the pig enclosure, but most of his remains had been consumed.

The district attorney’s office said it was possible Mr Garner had a medical emergency, such as a heart attack, or was knocked over by the animals before he was killed. But criminal activity has not been ruled out.

Authorities estimate the pigs weigh around 50 stones (317.5 kilograms) each. One had either bitten or been aggressive with Mr Garner previously.

I would say it was a criminal who did it, and fed his remains to the pigs. Pigs will eat anything, and eat things quickly. Of course i'm basing this from the movie Snatch, but if true I could understand why it says suspected criminal activity.

Will they slaughter the pigs now after they've eaten human meat ??

They left behind his dentures. They really made a pig's ear of hiding the evidence from what would have been the perfect crime.

They can gather the bits and piece him all together, a dollop of oinkment and he'll be as right as rain in no time.

They would have gotten away with it too if one of them didn't squeal.

Im sure they will, since they would likely have been slaughtered even if they didnt.

Seems somewhat fitting tbh, farmer spends his life raising pigs to be eaten, dies being eaten by pigs. Circle of life.

Having tasted human flesh, these pigs will be unstoppable and eventually replace man as the top predator on Earth.

It's Planet of the Pigs !!!!!
Take your trotters off me you damn dirty pig.
