Latest news from Qatar
Ahhhh lets here it for the Pig!!
Quarantine for lonely Afghan pig
Khanzir the pig
Khanzir was given to the zoo by China in 2002
Afghanistan's only known pig has been quarantined because of fears over swine flu, officials from Kabul Zoo say.
The pig, a curiosity in a country where pork products are illegal, lives at the zoo, where he had previously enjoyed grazing next to deer and goats.
However visitors expressed fears that the animal could be carrying the H1N1 virus and he was moved into isolation.
The director of the zoo, Aziz Gul Saqib, says the pig, whose name is Khanzir, is strong and healthy.
Speaking to the BBC World Service, Mr Saqib says: "The only reason we moved him was because Afghan people don't have a lot of knowledge about swine flu, and so when they see a pig they get worried and think they will get ill."
The director says Khanzir, given to the zoo by China in 2002, has been moved to a large space with lots of windows and fresh air and that he hopes he will be quarantined for only a few days.
Acknowledging that being Afghanistan's only pig is a lonely existence, Mr Saqib says he hopes to find Khanzir a female companion soon.
However, he says, because of swine flu, "it is a dangerous and difficult time to get a new pig for our pig".

Afghans are not stupid ...Popcorn....
they are not stupid in Afghanistan
they have a literacy rate of less than 30% - few have had the opportunity of any sort of education
so how are they meant to read and learn?????
They are tough and proud people and if i (an 'educated') person had to walk in their shoes...I would perish.
Respect to the Afghans...their country is decimated but they still smile and have wonderful hospitality
Ta Shakur :)
