Kids saw a man poking a pig and ran to tell the owner. But when the owner told the man to stop he refused and carried on without missing a beat.

Even when his father was called, the poking man wouldn’t stop and the cops were called. “How are we going to eat that meat?”

On Monday, cops in Phuthaditjhaba, Free State, removed the 39-year-old man from Chris Hani Park.

Facebook came alive with comments when the post was shared.

Moeketsi Maximilano said:

“He was afraid of women so he chose to poke a pig.” Pulane Peggy said the man did nothing wrong. 

“I could bail him out because he didn’t go to the kids,” he said. Julia

Witness Lehlonolo Mosikili said the man claimed it was his pig. Bloemfontein SPCA manager Reinet Meyer said bestiality is barbaric. “It’s totally against the law.

If anyone witnessed such an incident, they must take a video and go to the nearest police station to report the incident and contact their nearest SPCA,” she said.
