Best Answer

The first and most obvious way that pigs help people is by feeding us. Millions of pigs are slaughtered and then served as ham, bacon and pork. ( also pigs ears 4 dogs!)

Pigs can also be trained as truffle hunters. Truffles are a type of fungus that grows underground and they are worth thousands of dollars. Pigs are used to hunt them out using their snouts.

Pig poo is great fertilizer!

Believe it or not, pigs are very smart and make great pets. They can be toilet trained, trained to do tricks and have a very friendly nature.

Pigs help people in many ways, from being friendly pets to dedicated truffle hunters!

Vancomycin resistant enterococci, or VRE, is an infection that can occur in pigs. The importance of locating pigs that carry the VRE infection is pertinent to humans because it can cause serious illness to be transferred.
