'The classic David and Goliath story': Pig versus bear stand-off caught on camera
CTV
A heroic pig named Barbie Q defended her fellow farm animals from a bear, an act her owner says is an inspiration.
When Crystal and Brandon Walls first watched what was captured on their security camera, they were shocked.
“The other animals were terrified,” Brandon says, before pointing to the footage of the goat racing around the hobby farm.
They were fleeing from a black bear that had broken into the enclosure.
All except for one animal they couldn’t find on the screen — a pig named Barbie Q.
“She’s my furry little pig kid,” Crystal says.
Barbie had been living inside Crystal and Brandon’s home since she was a baby.
“She didn’t realize she was a pig,” Crystal says, before showing pictures of Barbie cuddling with all the members of the family.
