That is a very good question. My boyfriend tried to convince me of that but it made absolutely no sense to me. He said something about his uncle telling him that snakes don't bite pigs...I know this is probably little to no help, but I think it's just a rumor that got started. Pigs don't have sweat glands and they can get sunburns. They have a heart; therefore, they have veins.
