A piglet with the face of a monkey has been born in a remote Chinese village, astonishing local residents.
Its front legs are much shorter than its back legs, causing it top hop rather than walk on all fours like a normal piglet.
“It’s hideous. No one will be willing to buy it, and it scares the family to even look at it,” owner Feng Changlin told the Oriental Today newspaper.
"My God, it was so scary. I didn't know what it was. I was really frightened," she said.
But not everyone in the family is disgusted by its appearance.
“Our son likes to play with it, and he stopped us from getting rid of it. He even feeds it milk,” said Mr Feng’s wife.
Neighbours have suggested the couple keep the piglet to see how it looks as it matures.
