A two-headed pig with a third eye in the middle of its forehead is proving to be something of a tourist attraction as hundreds flock to catch a glimpse of it.
The unusual but adorable piglet is just a few days off and has two heads and two mouths – but only three eyes.
Farmer Zhong Xulong, from Fengtian, China, said he noticed the “special” piglet as soon as it was born along with 13 of its siblings.

One of the piglets in the litter is said to have died soon after being born, but surprisingly the two-headed animal survived.
The piglet has four legs and seems to be able to eat and breathe with either head, and locals have been visiting the farm to see it for themselves.
Xulong said: “Lots of people have come to see the pig already.

“Someone even offered £209 GBP to buy it off us, but I refused.
“I want to raise it and see it grow up – we’ll see what happens after that.”
Despite having two mouths from which it can feed, the piglet is now being given special attention by the family, who are hand-rearing it with baby formula and also keeping it in a special box.
