Holy Moly. May I present to you dinner for the entire state of Rhode Island.

This pig was a 1900 pound porker who died just last week. He made his home in China and the owners are appealing to the Guiness Book of World Records on his behalf.

The pig belonged to Xu Changjin, a farmer of Wafangdian city in China. Xu said that he had kept his pig in a nicely built sty and fed it quality fodder all its life. Professor Liu Mingyu, a life scientist with prestigious Liaoning University, says that the pig had died from lack of exercise. "It had grown too big to move around," he explained.

Prof Liu has had the pig stuffed and made into a specimen for the Liaoning Provincial Agricultural Museum.

I may have nightmares tonight...
