The video of the same exists on Twitter, where a user commented, ¡®It is clearly a mutation. It would be terrible if the authorities do not look into what happened to the animal¡¯s genetics¡¯.
¡®Food is so bad in Venezuela that even the animals do not have enough vitamins and minerals to give birth to healthy offspring!¡¯ wrote another.

Sadly, something like this is not in the hands of innocent, voiceless animals. And yet some users found it okay to write comments like, ¡®Horrific, it is so ugly!¡¯
As of now the piglet is still alive but there is no knowing how long it will survive given it reportedly has breathing problems because of its facial deformities.
