What is this thing?
Is it pig's exercise equipment? or a guillotine??
(original unknown)
UPDATE: The pig-thing is for fixing an animal (usually cows/pigs) while cutting their hoofs/claws. Phil Hofstetter writes: "In the Swiss countryside (where I live), the "Klauenschneider" (claw-cutter) is a common profession - a man with a device as on the picture mounted on a trailer moving from farm to farm!"
