The theme of this fable is "Do not judge others until you’ve walked a mile in their shoes." The sheep does not understand the pig's distress because they have different experiences and fates. The pig's concern is valid due to the very real threat to its life, while the sheep's situation is different. This illustrates the importance of empathy and understanding others' perspectives.
