Have You Ever Heard Of The Pig Island?

Pigs can't fly, but they can swim for sure. Also called the Big Major Cay, the Pig Island is a tiny, uninhabited island in Exuma that lies in a remote corner of the Bahamas. On this island, you will see something incredible! You will be witness to dozens of feral pigs that can swim. Can you believe it? Barely anyone had heard of the Pig Island before. No one is quite sure as to how the pigs got to this island. Some say the pigs were left by sailors who intended to cook them, while others assume the pig swam to safety after a nearby shipwreck. If you are lucky enough to visit this island, you will see pigs swimming in the ocean, right up to your boat, to greet you and pose for pictures. Millions of tourists visit this mysterious island every year. Those who found pigs hanging around the beach soon began feeding them.

Amazing sensors, intelligence and adaptability have helped these animals, hence making theirs the ultimate success story.
