Russia’s cultural capital St Petersburg has been introducing spectators to a rather unusual sport. Visitors have flocked to see the fastest animals on four… trotters!
St Petersburg is a city of palaces, poets and now… pigs! And at one local restaurant pork is firmly off the menu while they recreate a medieval tradition – the pig race. The sport used to be popular entertainment in Imperial Russia and it’s recently been revived.
