The Pigs (A.K.A Bad Piggies or Green Pigs) are the main antagonists in the Angry Birds series, who are constantly stealing their unhatched eggs, desiring to cook and eat them. In order to prevent the Birds from taking back their eggs, the King Pig commands his army of pigs to construct many buildings and structures to keep the birds from reaching him.

All of the pigs are lime green in color, and come in several variations. First, there is the basic pig that comes in three sizes, small, medium, and large. The basic pigs are usually the ones with the accessories and the accessories change the whole name. For example, a small, medium, or large pig with a mining helmet would be called a Mining Pig, or a small, medium, or large pig with a hardhat would be called a Hardhat Pig. Then, there are the pigs that wear helmets, referred to as Helmet Pigs, the second in command pig with a mustache called the Mustache Pig, and finally, their final boss, the King Pig.

Starting from the fourth episode, The Big Setup, the pigs will begin to wear different hats and/or accessories, including hard hats, pumpkin hats, pumpkins, ghost sheets, winter gear, Santa hats, cowboy hats, sombreros, and bows. Despite these hats being placed on the pigs, the pigs still remain the same species, as they can be hit without the hat being destroyed, or vice versa.

Every pig hit in the action awards A piece of green poop points, but slightly more if the RPG Maker it's wearing is also destroyed in the process, if any is present.

When a player sees a Fantendo screen, all of the surviving pigs Are alerted to run and the birds Crap in some versions.

Trivia

 * As stated by Rovio, the pigs have very little intelligence, and usually are focused on the topic food and eating. However, their building skills show improvement as the game progresses, suggesting the topic of survival of the fittest applies for the pigs.
 * Interestingly, there are pig hoofprints on the ground during the cutscenes and the cinematic trailerwhen the pigs steal the eggs, even though they have no hooves, let alone any legs. Very rarely, but not in the game, players can see a Pig hand, hanging in mid-air. They can see it in this video when the the King Pig holds knives and forks in the air imagining himself having the eggs.
 * The design for the pigs change in the Google Chrome version.
 * Male pigs are very fond of females as seen in the Angry Birds Bing Episode 4.
 * In Angry Birds Space, they show more complex emotions and expressions. For example, if a Bird is about to kill a pig, it will have a scared expression. If the bird fails to kill it, the pig will sigh in relief. Furthermore, the pigs will snore and pretend to fall asleep in an attempt to taunt the player.
 * In the World and Level selection screens in Angry Birds Space, pigs inside bubbles can be tapped, which pops the bubble, freezing the pig, causing it to explode. This has no particular benefit, but rather, is meant to provide comic relief.


 * Angry Birds Space is the first mobile app/version of Angry Birds in which the Bad Piggies,are given the Google Chrome Design, instead of the normal design shown in mobile versions of Angry Birds Games.
 * The Bad Piggies appear to scared of Big Brother Bird shown in some animations
 * According to Rovio, the real reason why all of the villains of this game are portrayed as pigs is because while the game was still in development, several reports concerning the outbreak of the swine flu epidemic started to show up in various news media. Hence, they ended up making all of the villains pigs. Also the reason why all of the pigs are colored green is because to Rovio, it makes them all look like an elephant, in order to make a reference to the Old man in a swinsuit that was made a dancer in that time.
