The pair of pigs are the second successful litter born at the zoo, following the birth of their older siblings, Kevin Bacon and Amy Swinehouse last year.

A UK zoo has recently celebrated the birth of two rare piglets. The Visayan warty piglet is one of the rarest breeds in the world and is on the brink of extinction. 

The pair of pigs are the second successful litter born at Newquay Zoo, Cornwall following the birth of their older siblings, Kevin Bacon and Amy Swinehouse last year. Their mother, May, and her partner, Randy, are part of a breeding programme to help increase the number of Visayan warty pigs worldwide.
