Pig in Pain Promotes … Pig … Pain.

Duvall Guillaume launched a bizarre campaign for animal rights group GAIA in Belgium. It’s called Pigs in Pain. From the PR guy’s letter:

“In Belgium, five million piglets are castrated without anaesthetic every year. The cries of agony of these piglets are unbearable. Yet our government still pretends not to hear it. In spite of promises they made 3 years ago to ban the cruelty.”

With that in mind they created a pop group called Pigs in Pain. Their single, which was actually released on the radio, consisted of pigs screaming in inexplicable agony. It made our ears bleed. Clever way to get animal angst out to the public. So read the requisite blog, watch the music video and share in the plight of Belgian pigs. – Contributed by Angela Natividad
