  • Caption: A long story. Researcher Alexine Keuroghlian (Bronx Zoo's Wildlife Conservation Society) has traps for peccaries to radio collar them. A male feral pig wandered into this trap. The Pantaneiros hunt and cook wild male feral pigs (quite delicious). When they first catch one, they castrate it so the meat will taste better months later, and cut off its tail for easy long range identification. The operation has just been performed on this guy, who happily ate the result but was otherwise displeased. The cage had just been opened and Alexine's research assistant is up a tree to avoid the wrath of the pig. Fazenda São Paulino. (Pousada Caburé)
