What is the only animal besides a human that can get a sunburn?
a pig..............
And here are a few more facts: Pigs are extraordinarily intelligent. They are curious and insightful animals who are widely accepted as being smarter than young children of at least 3 years of age, dogs, and even some primates.
Pigs are extremely social animals. They form close bonds with other individuals and love close contact and lying down together.
Pigs are very clean, keeping their toilet area far away from where they lie down and eat. Even newborn piglets will leave the nest to go to the toilet within hours of birth.
Pigs are very peaceful animals, rarely showing aggression. The exception, as with many animals, is when a mother (sow) with her young offspring is provoked or threatened.

We had pigs on the farm in the 1960s, so I can confirm everything in this post. If the pig sty is messy, it's most likely because it's not big enough for the number of pigs.
I didn't know this about them. Interesting facts you shared.

I never knew this!!! My step son has lots of critters down at his place - but NO pig!!! What's up with that?
I didn't know any of these things. Very interesting!
How interesting... my granddaughter LOVES pigs... I'm going to share this with her:)!! Thanks
I only know that the neighbor's pigs stink to high heaven. Probably because as Tired Teacher said the pen is not big enough for all the pigs they cram into it.
such interesting facts, they sure do get a bad rap that they don't deserve!!!!
This is why I gave up pork- just can't bear to eat it any more, even bacon.
