Khanzir

Khanzir () is a male pig exhibited at Kabul Zoo in Kabul, Afghanistan. The animal achieved fame as the only pig in Afghanistan, a predominantly Islamic country which has no pig farms because the eating of pork is not permitted.

In 2002, the People's Republic of China presented two piglets to the Kabul Zoo, both Khanzir and the female that became his mate. Kanzir and his mate produced piglets during the early years of the War in Afghanistan. The family of pigs was attacked by a brown bear that broke into the exhibit after a caretaker left a door open, and Khanzir was the only pig survivor.
