Some Kind of Wonder-Pig
Esther could have spent her life in a gestation crate; instead she's entertaining and enlightening people around the world
She has a popularity rating most teenagers can only dream of. Her main Facebook page has more than 160,000 likes. Her musings about life with her two dads in Ontario, Canada, draw thousands of comments. And while she can鈥檛 take selfies, her photos get forwarded around the world. Here鈥檚 Esther cuddling with Shelby, one of her two canine roommates. Esther stretched out on the couch. Esther rooting through the laundry. One picture shows Esther sitting in her kiddie pool. The caption reads: 鈥淭he hardest decision I want to make today is pi帽a colada or strawberry daiquiri.鈥
But Esther the Wonder Pig does more than make people laugh.
