A treacherous wolf is waiting outside the pigs home, growing more and more impatient to gnaw down on him and satisfy his hunger. He threatens to demolish his home and tear him apart if he does not let him in. What would you do in a situation like this?The first two pigs in “The Three Little Pigs” could not adapt fast enough to this scenario which resulted in their death, but the third pig managed to work his way around the wolf's tactics and give him a taste of his own medicine. When the pigs were told by their mothers to leave and fend for themselves, the first two pigs were not very clever seeing as they built their homes of straw and furze.

When the predatory boys first hit the pig, “The sow staggered her way ahead of them, bleeding and mad, and the hunters followed, wedded to her in lust, excited by the long chase and the dropped blood” (135). The boys killing the sow reflects their longing for the sensation of murder. They have become numb to the results of their actions and are seemingly acting on self-gratifying impulses. Due to the temptation of the hunt, the boys allow their malignant impulses to take over killing the mother pig, portraying the loss of compassion. After the boys kill the pig they do their chant,“‘Kill the beast!
