Will the ＂pig strong＂ who survived the Wenchuan earthquake be made into a specimen after his death？ Host response

　　Zhongxin. com, Chengdu, January 5th (Yue Yitong) "‘ Pig is strong ’ It’s almost 11 years old, which is equivalent to 80 years old for human beings. Some netizens left a message on my Weibo to ask questions, and so on ‘ Pig is strong ’ Will it be made into a specimen after death? In fact, I hope it can be buried. " On the evening of the 5th, the reporter from Zhongxin.com got an exclusive response from Fan Jianchuan, the owner of "Pig Strong" and the curator of jianchuan museum.

　　Fan Jianchuan said that the process of making specimens is inevitably painful and somewhat cruel. "We can bury it well and then make a bronze statue of equal proportion and put it in the museum as a memorial, which is also very meaningful."

　　After the Wenchuan earthquake, a pig miraculously survived after being buried in the ruins for 36 days. Although it lost weight from more than 300 kilograms to about 100 kilograms, its strong vitality still amazed people. Since then, it has been called "pig strong". Yesterday, Fan Jianchuan published Weibo, saying that "Pig Strong" is too old and has a broken foot, so it can’t stand up.

　　As soon as the Weibo was issued, it caused a heated discussion among netizens. As of press time, its reading volume has reached more than 9.7 million. A netizen nicknamed "Flowers bloom in a happy dream" in Weibo said: "This is not an ordinary pig, it represents the memory of disaster and an invincible spirit."

　　In 2008, "Pig Strong" was bought by Fan Jianchuan for 13,800 yuan. "I just didn’t want it to get stabbed, but it lived to this day in one breath." Fan Jianchuan sighed that the reason why "pig is strong" has received so much attention is because it represents a beautiful meaning of "surviving, there will be a happy future".

　　Fan Jianchuan introduced that at present, I am going to lose weight for "Pig Strong" first. If the 350 kg "Pig Strong" can lose about 100 kg now, there may be a chance to stand up. "But because it is so old, we have to start thinking about the possibility of it leaving."

　　Although Weibo, the official settlement official of Jianchuan Museum, replied to netizens that he initially planned to make a specimen of "Pig Strong" after its death. But when it comes to this matter, Fan Jianchuan himself still feels sorry. "It’s still uncertain what to do in the end, but I prefer to let it return to the land and then make a bronze statue of equal proportion to commemorate it." (End)
