Can pigs swim in the sea？ Look， these pigs are from Bahamas. Now they are enjoying the 24℃ Caribbean sea. Do you admire① them？
A large family of pigs live on the uninhabited② Caribbean island of Big Major Cay. There are hundreds of people visit here every year， and they all like to take pictures or swim with the animals.
No one knows the reason why these pigs live on the islands. Its mysterious. One theory is that sailors dropped the animals off on the island. And they planed to eat them when they come back， but they never returned. Another legend suggests they were involved in a shipwreck③， but they were able to swim to shore④， remaining on the island ever since.
