Pig saved from death has own webcam

Caesar the pig didn’t want to go quietly into the abbatoir and was bought by pig farmer Dafne Westerhof who now has him on display through a webcam. The 315-kilo pig, raised by a bio farmer, simply refused to walk into the abbatoir. They both tried to transport him in a trailer, Caesar just wouldn’t go. He rammed so hard against the side of the trailer that he knocked out the side panel. Westerhof then decided to buy the pig for 2,000 euro. Caesar now lives on Westerhof’s farm Het Beloofde Varkensland (The Promised Pigland) in Amstelveen.

Check out Caesar’s Palace, the webcam. He is cute.
