Black Pig
Black Pig No. 2
Name: Jethro
Photographer Notes: Ole Jethro, what a character. Jethro’s been a show pig his whole life, which means he’s kind of a big deal in parts of the world. They’re super intelligent. As in, one of the top 5 smartest animals on the planet. But he sure was stubborn. During our shoot, we tried desperately just to get his head off the ground. Because you know, pigs heads are designed to literally be on the ground. What finally did the trick? A water mister. Pigs can’t sweat, that’s why they roll around in wet mud. Well, we didn’t have a trough of mud so just gave him a nice soft mist of water which he loved and kept moving his head towards. Phew.
