What does THIS MAP show?

[AviatorTom]

Here's a fun question for Wednesday... Hump Day.

In the map shown, the size of each country is proportional to a particular statistic. The colors on this map are irrelevant; they are only there to help you distinguish one country from another. What statistic does it represent?

Answer will be given on Thursday.

The correct answer is PIGS.

The size of each country is relative to the number of pigs in the country, China is #1.

China's "bloated" here...

Probably, because of it's human population.

But, why isn't India "bloated" as well?

Could it be the number of farmlands?

[juliammm]

something to do with CO2 emission. I would say the progression of emissions.

The map shows that eventually the earth will get all deformed and the land masses will all move to the bottom because they are heavier than water.

Average ass size? No, USA is WAY too small...

I'd say economic growth in the last ten years probably

If you do "Sheep", Wales will cover the globe...

All it shows for me is, I know nothing about Cartography!

[NathanDavis]

probably... pork consumption

China has bought all the piggies in this world...

[Siri137]

GDP, or economic growth during a particular year.

[OlderAndWiser]

[dustybiker2]

It's a map of flatulence?

[elaphe]

It shows human population.

[AviatorTom]

Nice try, that's what I first thought when I saw the map but that is not the correct answer.

[elaphe]

So it is population, just of pigs.

[OtterMan68]

alcohol consumption?

[AngryCarl]

Population density.

[AngryCarl]

hmm, pigs and Covid-19. Coincidence?

[msc545]

Relative populations?

[msc545]

Or - CARBON EMISSIONS.
