How is the pig's head an appropriate symbol for the story of the Lord of the Flies?
I don't think that Ralph was so much afraid of the pig's skull on the stick as disturbed and disgusted by it. He wasn't involved in Jack's hunt, which resulted in the pig's head being left a an offering for the beast. Simon was the only witness and as he was beaten to death nobody ever informed Ralph about the offering. So, Ralph had no idea who put the skull on the stick, or why. He just instinctively felt that it as somehow 'wrong' and in his anger and disgust of the unwholesome nature of the object he lashed out at it with his fist. Ever practical, once the skull had been knocked off the stick and had broken, Ralph took the stick to use as a weapon.
