San Jose del Monte, Philippines. December 31, 2023: Traditional pig slaughtering for New Year's Eve celebrations amidst palm trees. At the northeast portion of over-urbanized Manila, the Philippine rural life is regaining its rights and home-made swine slaughter is a common practice, far from industrial standards or animal welfare. Full of superstitions (no chicken/fish), Filipino families will have to wait midnight to gather for Media Noche, a festive loud dinner that lasts until morning and celebrate the end of world's longest Christmas and holiday season.Credit: Kevin Izorce/Alamy Live News
