This March 1, you may want to celebrate 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.
…by visiting the Brookfield Zoo in Illinois to marvel at works of art by Pig-casso. (Hat tip: Timbre.)
