Pigs Fly: Mother Pig Nudges Piglet A Bit Too Hard During Feeding Time (VIDEO)

We've all heard the expression, "when pigs fly," but one mother pig actually makes it happen.

It looks like things got a little out of control at mealtime when one piglet becomes overzealous with mom's food supply.

The pig nudges her little one so hard, that it catapults through the air while making only a small, toy-like squeal.

You might even say, he cried "wee wee wee" all the way home, assuming his home is about five or ten feet stage left.

I laughed so hard I almost fell out of the chair. This is how pigs should live. The babies are so cute!

The polka dot ones are cute.

So are their wagging little tails. These must be family owned and pastured.

CAFOs and other commerical farms cut the little pigs tails off. I think that is the cruelest of all. So is docking a dog's tail. Nothing to wag is so sad.
