Woolly Pigs

I have never seen these before, they look more like sheep than pigs, but I think they are cute.

Re: Woolly Pigs

I think they may have been on country file because they look familiar and I don't watch many shows about pigs.

Re: Woolly Pigs

That baby's cute.

I suppose it could make them more weather resistant, as pigs can burn in the hot weather, so it would protect their skin more. Likewise they might be able to cope with cold better too.

I didn't like the fatty looking meat though, thaat's not quite what I would call 'marbled', I wouldn't buy it as I don't like fat.
