Cook, clean, chill and separate -- when slaughtering pig in a flat

Posted: June 3rd, 2008 - 9:30am by Doug Powell

A Dunedin, New Zealand, City Council Environmental Health Inspector was called to a Union Street Flat recently after several complaints of a dismembered pigs body having been disposed and left on the street and a property.

Health Inspector Judy Austin attended the scene with two Campus Watch officers and a security guard to find blood, skin and the remains of entrail on the street, and the head and trotters of the pig inside the property boundary but close to the public footpath.

Austin said wild pigs can carry diseases such as E-coli, Trichinosis and Brucellosis, so the risk of having an outbreak of disease was possible.

Campus watch issued the tenants with a $100 fine under the Litter Act.
