I really don't see much of a difference between having a piggy-bank made from a real piglet and, say, an animal one's killed stuffed and mounted as a trophy. Especially since the company only uses piglets that have died naturally--the piglets aren't being killed to create these banks, unlike a deer or bear that's killed as a trophy.
For the record, I'm not interested in buying one. However, I find this entire concept to be rather amusing.

No way would I get one for my boy. Not that I'm going the PETA/humane society route. It's just too weird.
ReplyDeleteBesides, with a cost of $4K, you'd have to break open a lot of piggy banks to afford this one.
