Giant pig is living in a house after being bought as a micropig

A giant pig weighing 20 stone is living in a house - after being bought as a micropig.

Francisco, a three-and-a-half year old Vietnamese potbellied cross, was falsely sold as a micropig, but had an Instagram account which caught the eye of a 15-year-old girl.

The teen begged her parents for the cute piglet and the family, from Glasgow, travelled down to England to buy him - but three months later he was given to an animal sanctuary.

But he now weighs 20 stone, twice the weight of a healthy adult, and is 1.2m long.
