The Lonely Pig

Afghanistan has gone and made its only known pig stand in a corner away from anyone - anyone at all - just cause it might give somebody the sniffles.

The poor thing doesn't even have a real name - it's just called "pig". To make matters worse, it used to have a mate and offspring, but they were killed in a bear attack at the zoo where they were housed (note to Afghan zookeepers: bears and pigs should not share cages).

This is the saddest pig in the world.
