Lots of pigs are slaughtered every year but if they drop to 150 lbs. max and get a nice spray tan then they get to live. Don't make fun of fat people or skinny people saying there pigs you jerk.
In the US in 2008 the number of cattle, pigs, chickens, layer hens, broiler chickens and turkeys slaughtered in total was 18,573,833,400. That is 35,338 animals slaughtered every minute in the US. That excludes fish.
Most men are pigs
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!
2.1million
Around 9 billion are slaughtered.
None. No US troops landed in Cuba during this operation.
Pigs help us in many ways. Since you have catagorized this question under guinea pigs and pigs, I'm going to give you a list of how I think each of these animals is helpful tob humans. Pigs- pig arteries and pieces of pig heart can be used to prolong the life of human patients that are waiting to receive a heart transplant, pigs are a source of nourishment to many people, pigs also have a very good sense of smell and can find truffles in the forest, pigs also can be tamed and make good pets. Guinea Pigs- Guinea pigs have been used to conduct experimental drug trials, because of guinea pigs, we have many drugs that help humans every day. Guinea pigs also make great pets and you can breed and show pure-bred guinea pigs at shows put on by the National Cavy Breeders Association.
Are you Asian? If so, you are still not at risk of being slaughtered if the Asian flu breaks out in your area. [Assuming that is what your question means as a joke, otherwise the connections in your question are not clear.] In any case, if you get your flu vaccinations each year, you should be protected against the Asian flu if it has potential for spreading into your area during a future flu season. It is not expected to be one of the types of flu circulating in the 2011-2012 flu season in the US.
Pigs are omnivores, which is another similarity they share with many of us humans.
