How did the boy contract the swine flu from the pig?

It would have probably happened when the infected swine's saliva, respiratory droplets from sneezing or coughing, or other bodily fluids came in contact with the boy's mucous membranes, which is the typical method of transmission of this influenza virus between people and between people and animals. The boy may have been too close when the pig sneezed and then inhaled the droplets, or may have touched the pig or something in the pig pen or barn that had the respiratory droplets on it and then touched his own mouth, eyes or nose before washing his hands thoroughly. Although he is believed to have been the first infected human, there is also the possibility that he was not the first and that he actually got it from someone else who was in contact with the pig or pig's environment but did not report the illness or could have had mild symptoms and didn't even realize she had the flu.

How do you treat uterine prolapse in swine?

Uterine prolapses are extremely rare in animals - the entire vulva, vagina and cervix as well as part of the uterus is exposed in this situation, which is very uncommon to see. The more common counterpart to this is a vulvar or vaginal prolapse, which is much easier to treat.

Treatment consists of trying to get all the internal parts back inside the pig, usually through hypertonic solution washes of the exposed viscera to reduce swelling and careful manual manipulation to squeeze everything back in. Once the prolapse is reduced, most veterinarians will try to fix the prolapsed organs in place through the placement of surgical tacks or sutures.

However, in commercial swine operations, the cost of such treatment is quite high relative to the value of the sow and her future litters of pigs. At least in the United States, a true uterine prolapse is typically addressed via humane euthanasia of the sow.

How do the rectum and anus aide in digestion of the fetal pig?

In the fetal pig, the rectum and anus have nothing to do with digestion - fetal pigs receive all their nutrition through exchanges with the mother's blood in the placenta.

After birth, the rectum is responsible for removing any remaining excess water from the solid excrement to maintain proper water balance in the pig. Otherwise, neither the rectum nor the anus have any function in digestion - they function to excrete waste products.
