More Than 100 Pig Heads Found in Korat Tap-Water Reservoir

More than 100 pig heads were discovered floating in a reservoir used as a raw water source for Bua Yai Municipality in Nakhon Ratchasima. A local resident found the remains while checking the water level and inspecting fish traps on the morning of June 29. Several of the pig heads had begun decomposing, creating a strong smell and foam across parts of the water’s surface. Municipal workers removed the remains amid concerns about water quality and the additional pressure the contamination could place on the treatment system. Local representatives called for an investigation and legal action against whoever dumped the animal waste into the public water supply.
