I know that buddhist do not believe in killing animals for food but is it wrong to make love to a pig?
It is wrong to kill animals for food because we are human, we must behave humanely even towards animals.
It is wrong to make love with pig because we are human, we must behave like a human and not like a pig.
It is wrong to ask this kind of stupid question because we are human, we have intelligence, there are many questions go without asking. Understand?
I read one story in library
Once there was a monk had kept a female monkey and he abused the animal for his sexual urges.
Soon this matter was discovered by other monks and this monk was reprimanded by Buddha. It is because of the lust that the monk fornicated with the animal. Buddha then set precepts that if his disciplines committed any sexual misconduct between man, woman, hermaphrodites, living things, non-living things will be considered as breach to the Buddhist Order.
I summarised it. Can't fully recall the details.

Nature will take care of that. Let them decompose and go back to earth. You don't exist just to eat all the pork and beef right ?

Where any species couple, it is a way of procreation, and yes, lust of cause is involved.
However, any sexual intercourse done otherwise, is unnatural, thus not helpful , it is only about satisfying one's craving and is frown upon by most cultures.
The word for it is bestiality.

I thought we mention sexual misconduct here?
If what husband and wife do also wrong, then I have nothing much to say lol

so its wrong if i lust after the pig
but if my objective is to create man-bear-pig, then its ok?
Any sex addiction is a preoccupation on lust is not helpful for a Buddhist practice, one will be very distracted.
There are a few questions I'll like to ask; namely, how you relate this issue to Buddhism? Which this forum is about. What is the point do you wish to bring up? What is troubling you?
I hope you realise bestiality is very offensive to many. If you are unable to relate in terms of Budhism, the moderator will most probably delete your post!
Finally, I'm being speculative here, if the man, whom you use to call darling and sweet nothings,sometimes he is cuddly and adorable like a teddy bear and now he behaves like a pig, then that's a different issue!
