The image depicts a crowded, open-air pig market in Unguwan Rimi, Nigeria. A rusty, corrugated metal roof structure is visible in the upper left, extending diagonally into the frame. The sky is bright and clear, with sparse, bare tree branches in the upper right and green palm trees in the background. The ground is dry, dusty, bare earth, showing signs of heavy foot traffic, with a visible dust haze pervading the scene. Scattered debris is present on the ground. Approximately 50 to 70 individuals, primarily adult males, populate the midground and background, densely packed among numerous pigs. They wear varied casual clothing, including shirts, t-shirts, and head coverings. Many are standing or moving, with some appearing to handle or manage the pigs. Numerous light-skinned pigs, ranging in size, are intermingled with the people across the entire ground area. Several pigs in the foreground are clearly visible, and many more are scattered throughout the midground and background. Some pigs have ropes or tethers attached, indicating active handling. In the immediate foreground, a person wearing a light-colored beanie and a light blue long-sleeved shirt with two horizontal orange stripes stands with hands on hips, facing away from the viewer, observing the market activity.
