Celine Dion and Bob Marley help Rwandan pigs digest

According to Canwest News and Reuters News Service, Edmund Ndizeye, a farm pig herdsman in Urwibutso, Rwanda, plays hip-hop, reggae, rhythm and blues, and even a bit of Canadian Shania Twain’s country music to his pigs. He claims rearing pigs with music doubles their yields in terms of offspring, quality of the meat and their weight.

They get a diet of soft tunes from Celine Dion and Bob Marley to help them digest after eating restaurant and juice plant leftovers, and aggressive dance tracks later to make the boars more virile.
