An image from Chinese social network Weibo went viral, showing a smiling pig.
It emerged following flooding, and the arrival of a strong typhoon in Southern China this week.
Mail Online reports the image was taken in Yibin County, Sichuan Province.
The photo documented an evacuation of precious goods - which includes the cheerful pig.
But some said he shouldn't smile for long because he is only valuable as a future dinner.
A 2015 study by the University of Newcastle suggested that pigs possess complex emotions.
Whether or not they express themselves in facially expressions, such as a cheeky grin, was not addressed by the team at the School of Agriculture, Food and Rural Development.
