Porcine State of Bliss
Uploaded January 2006

Spotted in Pig World magazine November 2005 page 7:

Porcine state of bliss
Young pigs have a secret spot at the point where the front legs reach the body - their armpits if you like - and if they are nervous or stressed and you massage them just a little at this spot they will go into a sort of trance, says Dafne Westerhof, who runs a refuge in Holland for abandoned livestock and stressed-out executives. Massage a baby pig in this way and it will slowly topple on it's side and lay quietly, apparently in a state of contented bliss.

Does it work?
Could be fun to find out!?
