Pig deaths on Big Major Cay raised feeding and freshwater concerns in 2017

Several pigs died on Big Major Cay in 2017. National Geographic spoke to a Bahamas Humane Society inspector who pointed to sand in the animals’ stomachs and a dried-up freshwater source as possible contributing factors. Feeding on the beach was one concern. The article did not establish alcohol poisoning as the cause and distinguished careless visitors from responsible local operators.
