A cloned pig bioengineered by Chinese scientists to glow fluorescent green when exposed to ultraviolet light has produced two piglets that also glow in the same way.

Liu Zhonghua, a professor overseeing the breeding program of cloned and genetically-altered pigs at Northeast Agricultural University in China's Heilongjiang Province, reported the birth of the special piglets in the school's website on Tuesday. The breeding program is aimed at developing technology to produce pigs whose organs will be transplanted to humans.

A North Dakota farmer has a unique way of forecasting the weather - using pig spleens.

Paul Smokov swears his method is 85 percent accurate, insisting the weathermen - with their state-of-the-art radar and other scientific equipment - "aren't any better."

A 200-pound potbellied pig named Romeo is living as a major part of the household of a family in St. Albans, Queens.

The part-Vietnamese potbellied, who was bought from a farm in Long Island, was described by the Cummings family to be completely housebroken, and has never brought any complaints from the neighbors. He was reported to consume three pounds of pellet food daily, and is taken for a walk four times a day without a leash.

Tetley, measuring three inches in height and 5 inches in length, was the smallest of a litter of eight Pennywell miniatures born to his mother, Poppy Two Socks, at Pennywell Farm, near Buckfastleigh in Devon.

"Tetley is the star of the farmyard." Said Pennywell owner Chris Murray adding that his staff had to get through several false pregnancies before the brood came along.

An eleven year old boy from Alabama has killed what may possibly be a record-setting wild boar. Jamison Stone has killed a "monster pig" using a .50 caliber revolver, an animal his father claims weighs nearly 250 pounds heavier than the famed wild hog "Hogzilla" that that was shot and killed in Alapaha, Georgia. According to the examiners, Hogzilla, which was originally thought to weigh 1,000 pounds and measure 12 feet long, actually weighed only 800 lbs. and was just 8 feet long. The hunt however gained so much media attention that an independent film maker planned to make it into a movie titled "The Legend of Hogzilla."

As it stands, the hunt comes as no less than an accomplishment to Jamison who killed his first deer at age 5, according to the AP reports. Jamison said he chased the hog for three hours through hilly woods before finishing it off with a point-blank shot.

Stone, who has also bagged a role in the horror flick "The Legend of Hogzilla," however says he still prefers hunting pheasants to monster pigs.
