Group of men with a captured wild pig on the beach at Moreton Island, ca. 1920

  It does not seem very safe being around feral pigs. "Feral pigs may carry diseases that can be transmitted to humans. They may become aggressive if their young are threatened. Feral pigs digging for food damage natural ecosystems. Moreton Island rangers are undertaking a feral animal management program on the island focussing on feral pigs."

  Why were the pigs on strike? Price of pork too low? :D

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  They wanted the same salary as Peppa Pig! :D

• Cris Melo said:

  They wanted to be treated like dogs.

  The Irish Times archive mentions a bacon-curers strike in 1890 in Limerick, and a Waterford bacon trade dispute in 1896 though ... A quick scan of the articles seems to show that, despite the time gap, the disputes seem to be linked, and involved Shaws and Dennys...
