That is a fun fact!

“Pig Island, also known as Big Major Cay, is a small uninhabited island in the Exuma archipelago in the Bahamas. It is famous for its unusual inhabitants: a colony of swimming pigs.

These pigs, which have become a popular tourist attraction, live on the island and often swim in the crystal clear waters nearby, approaching boats in search of food.

It is unclear how the pigs arrived on the island. Some theories suggest they were taken by sailors who planned to return to cook them but never did, while others suggest the pigs swam to the island after a nearby shipwreck. Another version indicates that the pigs were introduced as part of a tourism development plan.

Pig Island is only accessible by boat, and many tours offer excursions to see the pigs and swim with them. The experience of interacting with these animals in such a picturesque environment has made the island one of the Bahamas’ most unique and popular attractions.”

Probably not all the time, but on their island they have no natural predators, so they do live pretty carefree lives.

It’s real! Quokkas are like the happiest animals on Earth:

Aww, thanks! I try to cheer Lemmy up with my animal posts because otherwise life is too depressing. Glad to know it’s appreciated!

Turns out you are right! I was just copying the caption, but I’ll fix it.

Did you know that while they may move slowly, Great Blue Herons can strike like lightning to grab a fish or snap up a gopher?

Does coffee count? I just woke up.

That’s adorable!

I had the same thought, hope she doesn’t get in trouble. Seems like she created a loyal customer for a low cost.

Agreed, changed it to “interesting.”

This made my day, thank you!
