OINK? >Mark Rabiner Hi, Mark - It depends on the size!. The large Mama pigs were very noisy with lots of grunts and snorts - even noisier than the assorted doctors who traveled with us. We carried several dozen eggs wrapped in paper for our supper and the Mama pigs got into the dishpan and ate them all! We had beans and tortillas. The smaller piglets are just cute, warm and cuddly. We were very tempted to use them for pillows since we were sleeping on the ground, but the Mama pigs objected. As far as smell goes, we had all been traveling for a day in a canoe weather alternating between freezing rain and broiling sun. Nobody commented on the odor of the pigs. We had no covers to steal. We stumbled over the pigs on the way to the latrine which was the nearest tree where the corncobs were stacked. Yes, they snore and OINK, but not as bad as my husband.
