Luciana Benetti, 16, holds her pet pig Chanchi, given to her as a birthday present the previous year during the COVID-19 pandemic in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Saturday, Sept. 4, 2021. Without Chanchi, âÄœI wouldn't be me,âĝ said Benetti, who often sleeps alongside the 20-kilo (45-pound) Juliana pig that greets her with a squeal of delight when she arrives at her house.
