FARMYARD CONFESSIONS

In the Middle Ages, a number of trials took place involving animals condemned for crimes and misdeeds. The pig featured prominently in these, although creatures as small as flies and caterpillars were accused of crimes against crops or for making life difficult for humans. The courts were properly organized, with a judge, a prosecutor, and someone standing for the defense. When it came to sentencing the smaller beasts, where it was recognized that only a representative minority had actually been brought before the court, sentence was often by excommunication from the Church.
