Family raises 200kg boar as pet in Vietnam

A family in south Vietnam received a wild boar as a piglet from relatives two years ago, and now it has grown to a huge 200kg pet. The family lives in Binh Chanh district, in Ho Chi Minh City with the boar named Be Un, filmed here on February 23. Initially, Be Un weighed only about 4kg but now weighs nearly 200kg and main meals include meat sandwiches mixed with diluted condensed milk, which consumes six loaves of bread over three meals per day. The owner commented: "Some people offered to pay large sums of money to buy [Be Un] but my family does not sell, because I consider Be Un as a family member indispensable in the home."
