    The kinetic energy will have an increase as it falls.

    Explanation:

    The energy of a particle falling freely will be the sum of its kinetic energy and its potential energy.

    When the pig is just dropped, the total enrgy will be only its potential energy. As it falls down its stored potetial energy will be converted into kineitic energy. Just before it touches the trampoline its total energy will be solely kinteic energy.

    Thus, the kinetic energy will have an increase as it falls.
