China's new Olympic sport: a piglet triathlon!

Description

One farmer paid tribute to the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics by creating his own 'Olympic competition' - a piglet triathlon. The two-month-old little swines competed in a triathlon where they dived and raced across a specially-made obstacle course at Green Island Farm in Zhangjiakou. Tourists seemed impressed by the athletic prowess of the cute porkers, while organisers hope that events like these could make more tourists visit the town.
