Groink - National Pig Day
National Pig Day.
The 1st of March is set aside especially for pigs. It was started by Texas art teacher Ellen Stanley in 1972 to honour and give thanks to our most intelligent domesticated creature.
On this day, remember the good things pigs have brought to us; remember that pigs are sociable, intelligent mammals. They are much like us in many ways, they have noticable personality traits and soaring emotions. You might want to visit a farm sometime in March for a day out (with the kids) and pay your respects to these marvelous animals.
If you have never handled a pig before, or even seen one in the flesh, I think you will be pleasently surprised at their nature. Take a detailed look at the way a pigs live; how they eat, sleep, and interact with one another. It's very good fun and interesting.
A couple of oranges is a lovely treat for a pig.
