Jack is unable to kill the pig, due to his fear of the squealing and blood that the pig would produce.

Jack's inability to kill the pig is a symbolic example of the still existent human moral within the boys. Jack being unable to kill the pig shows he is hesitant to kill others, because he believes it is wrong.
