Farmer's shock as bizarre piglet born without FACE
12.02.2016 23:30
Pictures posted online show the piglet's tiny body hanging limp in the farmer's hands.
And while the creature has trotters, teats and ears as usual, no facial features are apparent.
The tragic porker was one of 14 born to a pig in Western Pennsylvania, USA, of which nine survived.
With no clear way of breathing, the animal is presumed dead, but nothing uploaded with the photos confirms this.
The images, which were uploaded to Reddit, show the latest in a series of unusual piglet births from around the world.
Last month, footage emerged of a swine born with a monkey face, which lived for a short time in Ciego de Avila in Central Cuba.
And a farmer in China was swamped with offers from eclectic collectors after a pig was born with a penis on its head and a human face.
Reddit user, nmezib, who shared the latest pics online, said it was the same for his farmer friend – whose piglet could fetch a high price.
Another site user commented: "That pig probably has lungs, but it doesn't use them in the womb. Once it's born it probably died from not breathing."
One more added: "Little guy was able to survive in mom because fetuses breathe through mom, not on their own, until they are born."
