In this episode of The Pet Pig Podcast, Autumn takes a step outside the usual world of pet pigs to review Joel Salatin's book The Marvelous Pigness of Pigs. While Salatin writes from the perspective of a regenerative farmer raising pigs for food, his core message resonates with all pig people: pigs deserve the right to fully express their "pigness."
Autumn unpacks Salatin's big ideas—why rooting, foraging, wallowing, and exploring are essential to a pig's wellbeing—and connects them directly to life with pet pigs. From behavior challenges to enrichment and daily routines, she shows how honoring natural instincts is key to raising happy, healthy pigs.
This thoughtful discussion challenges listeners to reflect on what compassionate pig care looks like, whether in a pasture or in a living room. If you've ever struggled with your pig's behavior, or if you want to deepen your understanding of what it means to respect and nurture pigs, this episode offers both inspiration and practical insight.
