To welcome in the Year of the Pig, a farm in Foshan’s Shunde District, Guangdong Province in China, held special pig games.

More than 100 pigs took part in the games, which included racing and climbing stars. And in honour of the special occasion sows wore a selection of clothes for a “fashion show”.

The Year of the Pig begins on February 10.
