two hogs strapped onto a scooter

they say that flipping a hog over onto its back creates a sedative effect. one can strap several such placid swine over the threshold of a one-man scooter, and tear off to the market to sell them by cuts and parts. such a concept does not bode well in my mind, as this information is not a held opinion of fact, but rather from a story of a recently-returned world traveler. in asia, you may well be privy, live animals are sold and occasionally slaughtered in the public market. this is also the market which produced s.a.r.s.
i put very little stock in a living creature turned contrary to its spine and natural stature as a pleased animal indeed. much less would i believe that a simple scooter would support the weight of an adult and two hogs all the way to market. what if the operator of said scooter hits a roadbump, runs out of gas, or is cornered by american animal rights activists on the way?
