The Friendship of a man and his 1,200 pet pigs

Everyone loves their pets. But this Japanese farmer has great love for his, and they are not cats, dogs nor parakeets, but yes twelve hundred hogs.

The Japanese photographer Toshiteu Yamaji spent years documenting the life of Otchan, this friendly farmer who treats his pigs like his children, taking naps and walking them.

According Otchan, this treatment of pigs is his way to "compensate" the sad future of animals that go to slaughter.

Healthy potato chips made of insects! Super!

The Six Foods created fries made of crickets that could cause the western world to change their eating habits.

The meat industry produces almost a fifth of all greenhouse gases created, occupy vast amounts of land, resources and energy, and is based on techniques that contribute to animal cruelty.

The idea of three Harvard graduates – Laura D’Asaro, Rose Wang e Meryl Natow – the first product of startup is Chirps, it's a naturallow-fat gluten free chip, instead of the usual potato or corn, Chirps are created from a mixture of ground grains, rice and powdered crickets, which are baked instead of fried.

The result is a bag of potato chips containing 7 grams of protein - more than one egg. This comes from the fact that the cricket meat provides more nutrients and proteins than traditional meat. All of this without harming nature. 

Would you dare to try it? I know I would!

If your reaction is "ewwww! gross!", remember that in each chocolate bar are, on average, six cockroach legs!

The First SmartPhone Made of Bamboo!

The British company AD Creative has just launched the first smartphone made from bamboo fiber, the ADzero, with Android system and personalized interface.

The product is considered innovative and sustainable by using bamboo instead of plastic in their structure, and only a few units will be produced, in order to become a unique and conscious consumption product.

The device uses the Android 4.0 operating system with Google and a custom interface developed specifically for the ADzero, named ADAOS. The junction of the Android system and ADAOS was named by the company as technologic "perfection".

The prototype was developed by a 24 year old designer, Kieron-Scott Woodhouse that promoted his ideas on social networks. A Chinese investor believed in the project and financially invested in the development of ADzero, so the young company AD Creative was born, with the motto "together reinventing the simplicity."

The Island of the swimming pigs

Big Major Cay is one of the paradise islands of the Bahamas.

Crystal clear water, white sand... a true paradise!

So far so normal because it is a common thing in the Bahamas, but this island has something interesting about it...

The only difference is that this island is completely uninhabited, I mean uninhabited by humans, because this island, for a totally unknown reason, is inhabited only by pigs.

A swimmer pig in Big Major Island

Surely a boat with pigs must have been shipwrecked near the island and the pigs, as excellent swimmers, managed to get there.

In fact, if even elephants can swim, why shouldn't a pig?

The island became a tourist attraction because when a boat approaches, the swimming pigs come looking for food, near the tourists.

The three little piggies?

Pigs taking a nap on the beach

And they are cute!

An interesting detail is that we think pigs are dirty, but notice how clean is this island, uninhabited by humans ...

A true paradox for an island full of pigs, I'm sure it would be different if it was full of humans.
