∙ 14y agoPigs can be destructive, but are not always destructive. It depends on the pig. If the pig is usually very calm and collected, it isn't very destructive. If it is usually hyper and angry, it is usually very destructive. It also depends on how tame the pigs are. There are a number of factors that play into this, but pigs can be destructive. Most of the time, they aren't.
Most of the time, no. However, they can get defensive if needed.

If you are keeping pigs its best to be on good terms with them and recognize the signs of aggression including a very LOW grunting noise that almost sounds like a growl, lip smacking and frothing at the mouth.
