I beg to differ - it has basically become the norm for pigs. It didn't used to be, but it has become so. I grew up in Indiana. Now, I've not lived there in 5 years, but I did live quite some time in a place that pigs outnumbered people in the county. The county seat was 3000. Even smelling pigs was becoming a rarity while out on a country drive and a flood meant that thousands of pigs drowned in a flooded barn ("pig factory"). Perhaps you are in a place where the pigs usually roam free, but I certainly wasn't.
