Surfing Pig Zorro Hogs Waves In New Zealand

A piglet called Zorro is making a name for himself in New Zealand - thanks to his surfing skills.

The two-month-old's owner Matthew Bell has been taking him out on the waves since he was just three weeks old.

Mr Bell says the crossbred pig is a "phenomenal swimmer".

He plans to continue searching for the perfect wave with his surfing mate until Zorro is too big for the board.

"We'll keep surfing until he gets to a size where he's unmanageable and, yes, see what happens after that," he said.
