A litter of piglets whose bacon was saved from a barn fire has been served up as dinner to the firefighters who rescued them.
一窝从谷仓大火死里逃生的小猪，被农场主做成了晚餐来招待那些曾经将它们救出来的消防员们。
The 18 piglets and two sows survived the fire in Wiltshire in February, which saw 60 tonnes of hay catch fire.
威尔特郡今年二月份发生的一场火灾中，60吨干草起火，农场内的18只小猪仔和2头母猪被消防员救出。
In a controversial move, farm manager Rachel Rivers thanked the Pewsey fire team by giving them sausages.
为了感谢皮尤西消防队，农场主雷切尔·里夫斯赠送给了他们香肠，但此举却颇受争议。
The firefighters initially said the bangers were "fantastic" but following complaints have since said sorry.
消防队员最初表示香肠“味道好极了”，但是在收到投诉后进行了道歉。
Ms Rivers defended the gift, saying farming is her livelihood and way of life.
但里夫斯女士却为该礼物进行了辩解，称农场经营是她的谋生之道和生活方式。
"I gave those animals the best quality of life I could ever give until the time they go to slaughter and they go into the food chain," she said.
她说：“我给了这些动物我所能给予的最高质量的生活，直到它们被宰杀，进入食物链。”
"You do feel sad at the end of it... but to bring them down for the firefighters was a good way of saying 'thank you'."
“你们确实会因为它们的结局而感到难过，但是把它们送给消防员是一个表达谢意的好方法。”
