I took this shot of this pig with my 4 megapixel canon Digital.
I hope you are not eating your breakfast or lunch, because he is one ugly pig.

He had just had a drink from the muddy water and his name is Baldrick, named after the character in Blackadder according to the owner. I took this shot in Scotland.

Hey everyone, lay off. He's not ugly he just looks like a pig. You want to see ugly you need to be in the Frances Marion forest, in South Carolina, when the wild pigs put in an appearance.

I'm sure a normal female pig would find Baldrick to be a real hunk or should I say a real oink!

Oops sorry Dimitri, it does sound as though I was making a point about Scotland, but honest believe me I wasn't. :D :D

Could be a wild boar marie.
Thanks all for your comments. And I like the one about the real oink.

...and he was very friendly too. He had a wonderful personality. A bit like Quasimodo, the hunchback of notredam. :D

Thanks Rachel and BeccaNH
