The distinction between Thrall and livestock is a thin one within the chancel that ultimately comes down to semantics. Both are considered property owned by their Ladies, one just has the baggage of failing out of the Gulag and losing their opportunity for citizenship before being resigned to this fate.
Because of this, Thralls and livestock are used interchangeably within the Chancel. Both feral beasts and Thralls alike are augmented and transformed to serve as beasts of burden, to produce milk, eggs, and meat, and in the case of the Chancel's Processing Pigs, to devour and purify the city's garbage and waste. With the distinction between thralls and livestock so meaningless, the Ladies in charge of these beasts often forget which ones once had the potential for personhood, and in truth, those Thralls transformed into such shapes often forget in time as well.
With their Ladies now taken by the beast plague, a number of the city's Processing Pigs have grown into truly hulking, unruly beasts. While many roam unbidden, broken free from their pens to sniff out garbage to feast upon, others have instead developed a vengeful taste for their former mistresses, seeking the busty amongst the city's survivors to sate their bottomless stomachs.
Even when in repose, these Maneater Hogs will often back themselves up to block the city's sewer outlets, so that unwary sewer explorers end up plunging into their fat, unwashed holes by mistake, delivering an easy meal with no fuss.
