sty
A sty or pigsty is a small-scale outdoor enclosure for raising domestic pigs as livestock. Pigsties are generally fenced areas of bare dirt and/or mud. There are several reasons that pigs, generally clean animals, create such a living environment:
Pigs are voracious eaters and will eat all the plants in the enclosure until there is nothing left to control erosion.
The pig will naturally root and dig for food in the enclosure, further disturbing the soil.
Pigs do not regulate temperature by sweating which means that they must be provided with water or mud in which they can control their own body temperature.
A large-scale enclosure for raising pigs is generally called a hog lot. Unlike a sty which would be found on a mixed farm, a hog lot is usually a dedicated facility. A locked enclosure with confined/restricted movement and freedom to exercise, is known as a boar-stall.
According to some experts such forced immobilization was believed to elevate cortisol.
