What A Week!

Hello, my fellow Animal Enthusiasts!

Al's week began (traditionally...) on Sunday, with a GORGEOUS wedding of best friends; followed by GREAT days at work, and seeing Deaf West's production of SPRING AWAKENING (a big hit for Al in the musical world!) with an INCREDIBLE friend!! Theatre and animals are finally balanced in my life...and it's truly magical. And so, of course, I must give a shout-out to my friend's favourite animal: The Pig. :)

YAY, Friends!! :D
THE PIG



Very misunderstood creatures, with many surrounding myths; pigs are very clean and VERY smart! (Animal Farm, anyone?? :) ) But really!! They have a higher intellectual capacity than dogs and most 3-year old human children! :D

They only roll in mud when they are hot; if they are cooled off and inside; they are cleaner (and hair-free!) than most animals you could have (which is partially why they are becoming very popular house-pets...and they're just adorable!! ;) )




Pigs are omnivores; they can be found in almost every part of the world and can survive in most environments! (Rare and Remarkable!!) In the wild they will eat everything from leaves and fruit to rodents and even small reptiles!! :D They can grow to weigh anywhere from 300-700 pounds! And they can live up to 27 years! (At least 12!). And they always stick with their family!



In short: Pigs are extremely smart, loyal, adaptable, respectful, and loving animals. Ya gotta love 'em!

"Cats look down on you; dogs look up to you; but pigs look you in the eye as equals." 
-(THE) Winston Churchill


Pigs are truly fantastic creatures, and they are a great choice for a #1 animal! (I'd LOVE to have one as a pet in my far future! ;) ) Please feel free to comment if you'd like me to focus on YOUR favourite animal; it'd be my pleasure! :D 



I hope you have a FANTASTIC week, readers! Stay awesome!!

All the very best,
-Al :)
