Many years ago I loaded pigs onto a DC10 once that then went tech, we had to phone the caterers to buy some ice and we got 500Kgs in 5Kg bags which was almost the entire stock. The stockmen fed it to the pigs. Apparently they like eating ice when it’s hot. Fortunately the problem was rectified and the aircraft got away.
