Swine
Pigs are also unclean. Swine eat, or learn, anything, and teach it as truth.
For example, some people say their favorite verse of the Bible is "God helps those who help themselves". That isn't in the Bible.
The swine is a symbol of the self-righteous; people who think they are good just because they think they are good. The name (חסיר )in Hebrew means 'perceive חז a new י revelation ר'. They think their own ideas, or whatever new ideas they hear, are true.
Swine pass off new teachings from others as if they are from the Bible. They hear from others that there are errors in the Bible. They pass it on as truth to make themselves look clever.
Teachers may learn things from scientific theories and pass them on as absolute truth. One thing is absolutely true in science: what it says is true today, will not be true tomorrow.
They may read the Bible and not understand it. They will teach their error as truth. When faced with things that appear to be opposite teachings in the Bible, they just choose one and ignore the other, rather than work to understand they are both true.
The one who cannot understand the word of God is not a good teacher.

Swine -2
The attitude of the swine-like teacher is so contagious it is dangerous. God’s law to the Hebrews about the swine was that they should not even 'touch their dead bodies' [1]. This riddle in Hebrew about teachers means that we should not be 'joined to their foolishness nor plagued by it.'.
A pig-like teacher may brag he gave an apple to a homeless guy. The next swine brags he gave two apples. The first responds that his was the only apple he had and he gave it. The swine will also make you feel bad for the good work that you did, trying to seem better than you.
This bragging of works is contagious. Do not be joined to it.
Swine attitudes of self-righteousness based on his own ideas are contagious because they appeal to our desire to be important. We want to be noticed and appreciated. We want to look good to others. Do not be plagued by it. Instead, seek teachers who build their students up.
Have nothing to do with the swine or you may get caught up in their folly. Perhaps this is a source for Paul's teaching: 2Co 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

Fish
Water is a symbol the word of God, so the clean fish represents the teacher who has been commanded to pursue, or search, the scriptures.
 
The Hebrew word for 'fish' means 'commanded to pursue'. [1] When Adam watched the fish darting around the water, it seemed like an appropriate name.
A clean fish has scales symbolizing the armor of God [2] , and is propelled by fins symbolizing that the love Jesus had for the word, which motivates the teacher. This is hidden in riddle. [3]
God's teachers are always looking to understand God better. They study, meditate, and then live what they have learned. They correct their teaching and their lives as they learn more.
They are motivated by the same love for God's people that God has for his people. They desire that others know God's love.
The fish live in three kinds of water or word. [4] The word of God comes from the 1. Father, 2. Son, and 3. Holy Spirit. God is made known through his 1. works; the things that happen in life, 2. his word; Jesus and the Bible, and by his 3. Spirit dwelling within us.
The one who wears the armor of God as he searches the scriptures, swims in the water of God’s word, and is motivated by the love of God, is a good teacher.

Summary
When we eat clean animals which ruminate and have a split hoof [4], we remember that our teachers should meditate on the Word of God [5], and it should produce a Holy life or walk, in them.
The camel is a symbol for a judge. Jesus said that we should not judge others [7]. Judges aren't good teachers.
The coney hides the gospel and only teaches the law.
The rabbit appears to celebrate at inappropriate times.
The swine are those who have no discernment in what they learn [6]. A swine shouldn't be a teacher.
These animals represent the behaviors of some people. We will need to understand what symbols are, then we can examine how the symbols are used to represent various kinds of people.
This needs a summary/reiteration of the theater/play idea. Also, a summary of the fish.
