Welcome to the world, weird-looking pigs!

Berlin's Tierpark (that translates to "animal park," kids) welcomed 13 Chinese Meishan piglets on Sunday. The Meishan breed, not surprisingly, is known for its wrinkled skin and long ears.
Are these the long-awaited exceptions that prove the "all-baby-animals-are-adorable" rule? Perhaps.
Oh, I take it back. Skin rolls, hound-dog ears and all, they're still pretty amazing...aren't they?
