A pig which was 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 with just its two front legs has become an unlikely celebrity in Henan Province, China.
The 10-month-old animal, known by villagers as Zhu Jianqiang, which means Strong-Willed Pig, was 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 with only two front legs, which it now uses to walk on.
According to owner Wang Xihai, Zhu Jianqiang was one of nine piglets 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 in a litter this January.
Zhu’s owner Wang Xihai was offered a high price to sell her to a circus, but he turned it down

He recalls: ‘My wife asked me to dump it but I refused as it’s a life. I thought I should give it a chance and unexpectedly it survived healthily.’
Several days after Zhu’s 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡 Wang decided to train the two-legged female piglet to walk by lifting it up by its tail. ‘I trained her a while each day. After 30 days she could agilely walk upside down.’

Wang said his home has been besieged by visitors since the 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡 of the pig, which currently weighs 110lbs. A circus even offered a high price for the pig, but he refused to sell.
That’ll do, pig: Wang said it took Zhu just 30 days to master the art of walking upside down
‘She proved to us that no matter what form life is it should continue to live on,’ he said. ‘I won’t sell her no matter how much the offer is.’
