We are in Castelnuovo Rangone, near Modena. The production and treatment of pork is the major economic activity of the town, as celebrated by this statue in the centre in front of the church. Piglet is delighted that he is fated to live with a vegetarian & someone who keeps kosher, and is relatively glad he's not a sentient creature. Yet he still manages to feel some empathy for his porcine compatriots, and stands here in solidarity with their plight.
