Previously, the official Weibo of Jianchuan Museum said on April 30 that in the past few days, many friends have been concerned about "Pig Strong", asking "This star is comparable to a hundred-year-old old man. Pigs are still healthy." The breeder said, "Pig Strong" is too old. At the age of fourteen, it has very inconvenient legs and feet, and it is quite difficult to get up. It must rely on human beings to support it to stand. "It may be about to complete its entire life journey."

The above Weibo mentioned that Zhu Jianqiang has lived in the Jianchuan Museum for thirteen years since the 2008 earthquake. Jianchuan Museum said on Weibo that it is really too old and is about to end its life.

On the morning of May 1st, Fan Jianchuan, director of the Jianchuan Museum, posted on Weibo that the situation of "Pig Strong" was very bad. In the video released by Fan Jianchuan, "Pig Strong" was lying on the ground, looking bony, with skin festering on his body. On the same day, a staff member of the Jianchuan Museum told The Paper that the current state of the "Pig Strong" is indeed not good. It has been several months and "can't stand up". The breeder needs to help it turn over and do some cleaning regularly.

"Pig Strong" was originally a sow raised by Wan Xingming, a villager in Tuanshan Village, Longmenshan Town, Pengzhou City, Chengdu. After the Wenchuan Earthquake in 2008, it was buried under the rubble and survived tenaciously by eating charcoal and water, and was rescued after being buried for 36 days. During the burial, his weight was reduced from 300 jins to only 100 jins.After being rescued, many citizens and netizens appealed not to turn this pig into a delicacy on people's tables, and named it "Pig Strong".

In June 2008, Fan Jianchuan, the curator of Jianchuan Museum in Anren Town, Dayi County, Chengdu, bought "Pig Strong" from the original owner Wan Xingming for 13,800 yuan. "I just didn't want it to be stabbed, but it has survived to this day." Fan Jianchuan once sighed in an interview that the reason why "Pig Strong" has received so much attention is because it represents a kind of "don't die in a catastrophe". , there must be future blessings".
