Boba the Pig Throws a Tantrum and Becomes the Sassiest Hog in Tennessee

Advertisement

Pig owners around the country often can agree on a few things. Firstly, that pigs are living trash bins and will eat anything. Secondly, pigs are much cleaner than people give them credit for. And finally, that being the lovely owner of a pig or even a pig farmer means that you have to put up with the same dramas as a family with toddlers. 

 

That's right. A pig is just as volatile, emotional, and strangely intelligent as a human child in their terrible twos. 

 

Meet Boba, the farm pig with the biggest attitude. This porky boy could put any two-year-old pistol to the test with his high oinks screams for attention. In fact, Boba is the snarkiest pig in Tennessee because of his high pitched, eardrum piercing, guttural squeal, which he unleashes when he doesn't get his way. 

 

 

As mentioned earlier, pigs will eat anything. Any because of that, pigs have developed a comical and desperate need to eat everything in their path. Like chicken feed for instance. Boba is one of two pigs owned by this Nashville farmer, but he is the biggest glutton when it comes to… well… pigging out.

 

He came up to the fence and attempted to sneak past the owner as she filled the chickens' food bowls. The farmer turned and caught him red handed, waggling her finger and reprimanding this porky heist. Because Boba was scolded for attempted theft and premeditated feasting, he unleashed a toddler-like tantrum of epic proportions. Like every adult, you've heard the high-pitched cries of a toddler in a Target before. Presumably, you turned your cart the other way to protect your ears and to hang on to a shred of aural sanity

 

Well, Boba's scream is 1000x worse. It's louder, it's meaner, it's more relentless. To be honest though, Boba is the cutest… and unlike human children, his tantrum kinda makes him even cuter. 

 

 

 

So if you were thinking that you wanted to adopt a quiet, meager, herd animal, think again. Pigs are so highly intelligent, they know when they get a rise out of you. They're as emotional as a child with not enough cognizance to express themselves in any other way but with wailing. AND they eat everything in sight!

 

However, pigs are also fiercely loyal, extremely trainable, and devilishly cute. So that trumps everything else we said above.
