As-salam =)
I personally don't find pig is cute, like seriously. Pig is just a pig, and not getting cuter even on the second view. Most of Muslim people don't say pigs are cute since pigs are forbidden to even touch ,nether less to eat. And it is sinful too! And, usually Muslim people don't feed the pigs - found by the road side or even at zoo. Not like other animals like cats, dogs, birds, etc, we feed them sometimes. I even feed stray dogs.

Here are some interesting facts about pigs:
Interesting & Amazing Information on Pigs
- Pigs do not have functional sweat glands. They use water or mud for the purpose of staying cool in hot weather.
- Pigs do not prefer to sit in mud. Infact, they prefer cleanliness much more than other animals. They use the mud only as a coolant in summers, that too out of necessity.
- Mud also provides the pigs protection against flies and parasites, apart from being used as a form of sunscreen, which protects their skin from sunburn.
- A female pig is called a sow, while the male is called boar. The baby of a pig is called piglet.
- Pigs have such a well developed sense of smell that they can easily find things underground.

- The largest pig till date was a Poland-China hog, named ‘Big Bill’. It weighed 2,552 lbs and had a height of 5 feet and a length of 9 feet.
- The scream of a frightened pig can measure 115 decibels, higher than the taking off noise of a jet engine (113 decibels).
- Even though pigs have four toes on each hoof, they walk on only two of the toes. This makes them look as if they are tiptoeing.
