Interesting – PETA has now issued an action alert for the State of Indiana. “Speak Out Against ‘Pig Wrestling’ in Indiana!” – http://www.peta.org/action/action-alerts/pig-wrestling-indiana/

Here is the text: “Pigs are highly sensitive animals who—just like our animal companions—are capable of great suffering and deserve respectful treatment. But during the month of July, fairs throughout Indiana intend to feature ‘pig wrestling’ events in which young pigs will be chased, grabbed at, swarmed, tackled, and then roughly crammed into barrel drums amid screaming crowds and with no means of escape or defense. Being subjected to the noise, violence, and chaos inherent in these activities is both terrifying and hazardous for the animals, and severe injuries, including broken limbs and backs, have resulted. Your voice is needed! Please urge fair officials in the counties of Fayette, Harrison, Whitley, and Decatur to cancel the planned "pig wrestling" events, and then forward this alert widely! Feel free to send the sample letter provided; however, your own polite letter will have more impact.”
