If you've made it to day 30, you probably aren't too bothered by the pig gore. Besides, we've gotten to know him so well by now. There were a few flies around the body this afternoon, but not too much was happening.

The lighting was very nice today, and I think piggy was looking particularly handsome in what was left of his head.	The head Courtesy JGordon

Another close-up of the holes that have appeared in the skin of the pig's shoulder area. Nothing happening around the holes, but they're still kind of intriguing.	Holes in the skin Courtesy JGordon
I spotted a little beetle here, actually, but he ran and hid under these brown guts before I could get a picture of him. He was dark, and about the same size as the pupae here. The back of his shell came to a point, I think.	Some guts: Some of the intestines (?) with plenty of dead maggots and pupae around. Courtesy JGordon
Nothing happening here. I just thought it was interesting how much of the skeleton you can see in this area.	Some of the guts and the back legs Courtesy JGordon
Tried to snap a picture inside the head. It didn't really work out—I would have had to crawl into the cage to get a good angle, and I'm not yet prepared to do that.	Aiming insinde the head (poorly) Courtesy JGordon
