What is pig?

A pig is a funny, squishy animal that loves to roll in mud and eat lots of food.

What Pigs Look Like

Pigs have round bodies, short legs, and snouts that look like they’re made for digging. They wiggle when they’re happy and grunt when they’re talking to each other, just like your little brother when he’s excited about snack time!

What Pigs Do

Pigs are very curious. They love to dig in the ground with their noses, just like you might dig in a sandbox to find buried toys. When it's hot outside, pigs roll in mud to cool down, it’s like when you splash in a puddle on a warm day.

Sometimes, people keep pigs as pets or farm animals because they’re friendly and give us food, like bacon and ham. It's kind of like having a big, muddy friend who also helps make your breakfast!
