Obviously, Rat can bury Pig.But perhaps he should not.Kinda depends on how much one values Pig as a live character….

I like what an elderly friend said recently when he was asked if he wanted to put something into a time capsule. “Young people, I’ll be 103 years old next month. I AM a time capsule!”

Obviously, Rat can bury Pig… its just that he shouldn’t bury Pig.

You can’t bury Pig—unless you put him into a sealed container!

Goat is right, you can’t bury Pig. You need to kill him first.
