Today's Animal of the Day is the Kunekune, a breed of domestic pig found in New Zealand. In the Maori language, 'Kunekune' means 'fat and round', which is also what they used to call me in high school. This breed of pig is relatively small, hairy, and short-snouted. Its most distinctive features are the wattles that dangle under its neck, which are usually only seen in certain birds and goats. The wattles are functionally useless and probably just serve as a fashion statement.
Here are some little Kunekune piglets and their mom. (WARNING: super cute)
