It's a tale that's making several people very happy online.
An old ram was being bullied by younger sheep around a year ago so the farmer decided to move the ram into his own field.
Not long later, a pig showed up to keep him company and they established what can only be described as a beautiful friendship.
The ram's name is McDuff and the pig's name is... Pig.
The farmer's sister shared the beautiful story on Twitter, writing 'On my brother’s farmlet he has an old ram which is separated from the other rams bc they’re bullies to him. Last spring a young, wild pig turned up in his paddock and they’ve become best friends. Sunbathing today.'

Twitter users are touched, to say the least:
What a wonderful example for people to follow, no matter what colour, creed & whether same sex or not. Friendship/love should rule. Thanks for sharing.
