QUIRKY WORLD ... Audiences flock to farm to see pigs fly

CHINA: A farmer has been teaching his pigs to dive in a bid to alleviate their boredom.

Huang Demin, 32, of Ningxiang county, Hunan province, found that giving the pigs a reason to exercise made them happier — and tastier.

Now his idea for improving the lives of his pigs has been turned into visitor attractions at several places around China, such as this recreational park in Donglu near Wenchang City.
