- "Two Flying Pigs Interfere with Muggle Air Traffic"
- — Daily Prophet headline[src]
A flying pig was a pig that possessed the ability of flight. As reported by the Daily Prophet in the summer of 1994, two flying pigs caused an interference with Muggle air traffic. A certain crazy, ginger witch was implicated with this incident.[1]
Etymology[]
The existence of this creature is most likely inspired by the adynaton "when pigs fly".[2]
Behind the scenes[]
- It is unclear if these pigs were a special breed that could fly or if they were normal pigs that had been magically tampered with by the Ginger Witch.
