Meet the Swimming Pigs of the Bahamas

swimming pigs 1Are you thinking about going away somewhere exotic for the holidays like the Bahamas? While you might not be able to live up to that dream this year at least these pigs are!

That’s right in the small uninhabited island of Big Major Cay, a herd of pigs was discovered living the good life. Apparently a few years ago they were abandoned on the island, 250 miles north of Cuba, in the stunningly beautiful Exuma district in the Bahamas where they went on to thrive. Now you can spot the pigs gobbling on everything by land and by sea, where they’ll swim out to passing boats in exchange for treats!

Well I’ve heard of pigs that could supposedly fly, but swim? See the new tourist attraction, hogging up the beaches in the Bahamas as we speak, for yourself:
