Description

Yagil's young pig died of sickness in the night. His teenager dug a hole to bury it in. The kids wouldn't touch the dead pig, and used leaves to handle it without actually touching it themselves. Yagil gave me a text explaining that they don't eat pigs that die of sickness.

Interpretation

The teen that buried the pig said they were burying it because "it was too small to eat", but that doesn't seem to fit. Yagil later explained it was to avoid becoming sick themselves that they don't eat pigs that die of sickness
