    I was thinking about the etymology of ‘piggyback’, and whether the animal pigs ride each others backs, having never seen it.

    Thanks for those with direct experience on farms etc. Good gags too.

    I actually have a pet pig! They’re very sensitive to having another animal above/behind them. He would shit bricks if another pig tried to get on him.

      Thanks for the tag. It depends on the type of pig and why is it being picked up. Or unless your talking about cops. Hard to tell here.
