Pig = Animal of the year?

A pig named "Zhu Jianqiang" which means "Strong Pig" survived for 36 days buried beneath rubble in quake-hit southwest China has been named the nation's animal of the year...hahaha...this earned him celebrity status and a plush life as the top attraction at an earthquake museum.

Surviving on rainwater and a bag of charcoal during his ordeal, Strong pig was sold to the Jianchuan Museum, which agreed to nurture him for the rest of his life as a reminder of the nation's resilience in disaster.
Now free from the worry of the slaughterhouse, the pig enjoys a cushy life at the museum, the report said.
So much for: "It sucks to be a pig living in stys and feeding on swill" HA!!
