Text from the story:
If you
call someone a "pig," you probably don't
mean it as a compliment. When you think of
pigs, you may imagine them as lazy, dirty
animals that eat a lot and make big messes.
You have probably also heard people use the
expression "sweat like a pig." So the truth
about pigs may really surprise you!
Pigs are
really very smart animals. They have a strong
sense of direction and can find their way home
from far away. They also recognize names given
to them by humans and will come when they are
called. People have even taught pigs to play
computer games! In one case, pigs used their
snouts to move joysticks and were able to hit
their targets eight out of ten times!
