Porcine quake survivor gets free insurance
A pig that survived 36 days in rubble after the Sichuan earthquake has been named Zhu Jianqiang, which means "strong pig."
Zhu Jianqiang was given a 10-year premium-free insurance policy last Thursday indemnifying him for 5,000-yuan ($735) should he die in a natural disaster such as an earthquake, or from accident or disease.
