Bizarre-o.. curious to know what's the culprit. Looks like that movie Avatar. Maybe it tastes like blue Powerade? A couple years ago I got a band-tail that its crop was full of red berries, and I swear its meat was stained so red from it. Nothing like this blue pig here but it reminded me.

There was a pig shot a couple years ago from central cal with blue fat as well. Not as vibrant but definitely blue. I can't remember if they ever found out why or not.

Cal graduate, perhaps.

Nick,

I remember this too.....Maybe it's a female version of blue balls...... ;D

Not good for human consumption. Green jeans advise from the other forum is bury it four feet deep to prevent other animals eating it.
Rodenticide is the culprit...

I don't believe that pic for a minute. Looks like a hoax to me.

Yup just got a confirmation from a friend close to this. RAT poison eeeewwwww

Not faked, real. Read a report from UC Davis. Apparently the rodent poison kills by renal failure. The animal bleeds out from inside.

Not the bacon or ribs you want.

Yeah just read that. Apparently some anticoagulant rat poison carries an additive that turns fat blue. Wonder why the additive. Perhaps as a warning for cases like this, to prevent humans from consuming the tainted meat. Interesting idea.
