Fearless pig saves animals from bear attack

Barbie is going viral on social media, but it’s not the Barbie you think!

A pig, named Barbie-Q, is gaining popularity for its heroic standoff with a black bear.

Owners, Crystal and Brandon Walls, were away from their farm in East Sooke, British Columbia, but hurried back when they got word that a fence had been breached by a bear. When they got back and watched security camera footage, they witnessed Barbie-Q saving the day.

A black bear had made its way into the enclosure with their livestock. While all the animals fled to safety, Barbie stayed to protect the area.

Camera footage shows Barbie charging and the black bear running a few steps away. Barbie herded the other animals back into safety and guarded the area for 30 minutes until the bear left.

Video: Using Our Sheep Feed To Heat Our Home For The Winter!

At Ewetopia Farms, we use our sheep feed, corn, as fuel to heat our house for the winter in Canada. Corn harvesting is fast approaching so today on our sheep farm we took advantage of the nice fall weather to remove some dry corn from our corn bin to make room for the new corn and to set aside 5 tons of corn for heating our house once the cold weather sets in. This is a very inexpensive way to heat our home. We grow and store the corn ourselves, and it is our primary heat source.
