DID YOU KNOW?

The skeletal system is very strong and supports a lot of weight in proportion to our pet pigs size.

Just think about the amount of surface our pet pigs foot covers and the amount of weight that is supported in comparison to our own.

The feet of a 100 pound pig supports about eight pounds per square inch.

If you take a human being with a size eight foot weighing 150 pounds supports about 1.8 pounds per square inch.
