Prize pig perplexes lucky draw winner

When is winning a lucky draw unlucky? As a woman surnamed Zhang discovered, it’s when the prize is a live pig and you have no way of getting it home. Zhang was among more than a 1,000 people who took part in a keep-fit community activity in Chongqing’s rural Hechuan district on Nov 24. At the end, organizers held a lucky draw, with the prizes all being live animals. Zhang won a pig valued at 2,588 yuan ($380), while others received chickens, geese, ducks or a goat. Although happy to win, Zhang said she had no idea how to transport a live pig.
