Despite medical training, Dr. McCoy only knows how to pronounce patients dead!
I'm dead, Jim. 💀
From our sources (definitely not Kevin), the doctor was quoted as saying "This pig guy is dead, Jim. I'm a HUMAN doctor, not a Whatever-The-Hell-This-Guy-Is doctor!" Logical Updates On Influential Public Figures contacted the pig guy embassy for a reaction to Dr. McCoy's remarks, but they had not returned our squeal hail by press time.

I believe I know why they haven't returned your call.
‘Pig-guy’ isn’t wrong unfortunately. As a young kid who saw this in first run, I recognized the prosthetic makeup of the Tellarites in TOS Journey to Babel as a rehash from the 1961 feature film ‘Atlantis, the lost continent.’
In the movie, a prisoner has his head changed into a pig-face. He eventually gets horns too.
Here’s the only production photo I can find of the scene.
Roddenberry seemed to like to lift a lot from MGM science fiction movies since they were high production value for the era. The movie was the kind of idea that would appeal to Roddenberry, a primitive but heroic fisherman is accidentally brought to the technologically advanced, godlike but immoral Atlantean society.
Uhm, I liked the Discovery and Short Treks version of Tellarites better. Much better.
Don’t like that SNW is reverting somewhat.
