How could they be living longer when a lot of them  are killed as soon as
they put enough weight.

Parasites might contribuate more to the health of an organism than if
forcefully eliminated via powerfull medecines.
I don't understand how you can support the raising of billons pigs in
concentration camp.

That doesn't reflect the condition of living of the pigs raised
industrially."

In the south of France wild boars are living off habitat provided by
farmers, like chesnut groves.  grains fields , potatoes  or other crops , as
much as off the wilder  habitats ( oak forest). the farmers get their refund
by hunting them .
This symbiotic relationship between the 2 species is going on since the
celtic culture.  That is a nicer and healthier  way to raise pigs

Pigs plants are a major concern for polluting the water around them . I
don't see the health advantage of that either.
also , Pigs seem to have the same kind of insuline problems than humans.
They are obese.How could they contribuate to our health.

Humans are more dependant on agrairian crops by eating pigs who are raised
industrially on soja, than they could be as a vegetarian eating directly the
soja . A pig eat way more than a human.
France for example is importing  from Brazil , soja to feed their pigs  .
Sustainance farmers have been expropriated  in that country to developp soja
production.

There is more powerful argument to question vegetarianism than promoting or
defending the abbherations of modern   production of pigs .
