A large even-toed ungulate. Like human beings, it is omnivorous, intelligent, and nearly hairless. “Fern came slowly down the stairs. Her eyes were red from crying. As she approached her chair, the carton wobbled, and there was a scratching noise. Fern looked at her father. Then she lifted the lid of the carton. There, inside, looking up at her, was the newborn pig. It was a white one. The morning light shone through its ears, turning them pink. “He's yours,” said Mr. Arable. “Saved from an untimely death. And may the good Lord forgive me for this foolishness.” -E.B. White, _Charlotte's Web_
