I live beside one of the "more pigs than people" counties; pretty sure that the bulk of the pig count is one farm (with several contract barns). At least in theory, there's one person who can say those are his pigs.

I'd be tempted to train them, arm them, declare the county the Free Porcine State.

Why stop at pigs? Why not free all of the animals at the animal farm? Are some animals more equal than others? ;)

Pigs and chickens too fat to walk or unable to eat with their beaks sawed off would require care until the end of their lives etc...

And that's humans fault, not theirs.

You can't simply throw up your hands and walk away from a century of animal eugenics
