A woman whose job it was to ‘milk’ pigs for their semen says a crippling wrist injury she suffered on the job has left her unable to work.
Maxine, 31, had a job she loved in animal welfare which paid well, but unfortunately it caused long-term injuries.
She started her job collecting pig semen for breeding top quality pork at the age of 18, but by 21 it had caused serious injuries in both her wrists.
Ten years later, she is still suffering from ongoing pain, which has required major surgery and prevented her from working in other fields such as floristry, dry cleaning and demolition.
‘I enjoyed working at the farm, the actual semen collection stuff isn’t all that exciting,’ she told Daily Mail Australia.
‘The wrist injury was caused by having to hold the penis still as the pigs move around quite a lot.
