Pig of the Crop

19 October 2007

Introducing the newest arrivals at Kids Zoo - six gorgeous piglets - Pearson, Petal, Pearl, Pat, Pete and Pastel.

Animal Fact: More Intelligent than dogs, Pigs are the fourth most intelligent life form on earth!

So with this little trivia fact Chantelle and Michael set out to find out just how smart these little guys really are.

At six weeks of age and after only two weeks of part-time training they are moving in leaps and bounds. Two Piglets are stand outs. Pearl and Petal are already sitting, coming to call, spinning, jumping AND completing the obstacle course!

Check out their progress in training time at Kids Zoo, and always
remember: Piglets Rule, here at Australia Zoo!! Oink Oink!!
