Which pig, they kill more than one? One is killed on the day that fire on the mountain is allowed to go out. After the fire is re-lit they cook the pig and hand out the meat. Later on in the book they kill a sow and Jack leaves its guts and its head, mounted on a stick, as an offering to the beast. The carcass of the pig is cooked and the meat shared out during the same feast on the beach, where Simon is later killed. Near the end of the book, when Ralph, Samneric and Piggy go to castle Rock to demand the return of Piggy's glasses Jack and his hunters arrive with the body of another pig. Samneric pass some of its cooked meat to Ralph later that evening.
