Pigs are one of the most intelligent animals on earth. In fact, pigs are considered to be even smarter than dogs. They are also very friendly and enjoy being scratched and stroked behind their ears and shoulders. By 2 to 3 weeks of age, they learn to respond when they are called. Pigs are very curious, and they immediately investigate any new objects they see. They love to play with balls, old tires, and other toys. When pigs sleep, they like to cuddle close together and groom each other. Wild pigs can also run fast and swim.  Many people think that pigs are messy because they like to wallow in mud. However, the truth is that pigs are very clean animals. They keep the area where they live clean, and they teach their piglets to keep clean too. Because pigs don't sweat like people do, they use mud to cool themselves and to protect their skin (which is a lot like ours) from sun and insects.
