Yeah, I feel like even if he just purchased a pig carcess and let's it rot in a cage the point would be made much more effectively without excess suffering simply by the smell and sights where people can't ignore it.
Seems we do have the whole story. As the article says, this is clearly illegal. When the inevitable complaint is made, the police are not going to just stand by.
