Among the Hidden Ch. 5 & 6

Why does Luke's family have to get rid of the hogs?

• No reason. The government just doesn't like pigs.

• Pigs are too much like pets and therefore having pigs was against the law.

• The people moving into the new neighborhood by the Garner family's house wouldn't like the smell of pigs.

• Keeping hogs is a waste of time and money.
