Farmer finds a pig has 15-year life span
A Guangdong pig farmer, curious about the length of a pig's life span, recently lost a 500-kg pig that he had raised for 15 years.
Wu Baoquan of Yangchun city's Tanshui township, purchased a piglet in April 1993, fed it leftovers and even built a deck for it to bask in the sun every day. The pig grew to 170 cm long, 100 cm high and 180 cm in girth.
