Emma Sue takes in a fun summer afternoon, frolicking among the mud and grass with Chester, Joy, and Tibit at the Pigs Peace Sanctuary in Stanwood, Wash. Founded in 1994, the non-profit organization has welcomed pigs, ponies, horses, llamas, dogs, cats, chickens, sheep and turkey. Primarily built to provide "medical care, a healthy diet, socialization and a permanent home with loving kindness" to the animals, its founder, Judy, clearly has as much fun as her barnyard animals when it comes to downtime, equipped with a camcorder to capture all the sweet oink-a-licious action.

Seven months later, locals no longer have to worry about a 300-pound pig. Strawberri is now full-grown and 600 pounds! But she hasn't gone anywhere, and neither have the Falks. Last week, the Southwest Ranches town council voted unanimously to change the ...

Geoffrey Robinson, Rex USA Despite the woolly coat, this curly cutie bears no relation to sheep. In fact, it's a rare breed of pig called mangalitza, and when three of these little piggies showed up at the Tropical Wings Zoo in Essex, they caused quite the commotion among visitors who couldn't decide quite what they were, reports Sky News. The mangalitzas weren't just brought in to look cute (although they're doing a darn good job of it anyway). They were procured to be educational, and to help ensure the breed's survival. Zoo education coordinator Denise Cox told Sky News, "We've got them here as part of a breeding program to make sure this fascinating breed does not become ...
