A nine-year-old boy gets to school by riding a pig.

Pupil Gutinho Rocha holds onto the back of the sow as she sprints down a dirt path to class.

He has tamed the swine, and she only lets him sit on her back.

The pig is so fast that she is called Foguete, which translates as Rocket.

Gutinho gets to school in just one minute.

But he wears a motorbike helmet for his safety.

Mum Ana Paula said: “Gutinho has always loved playing with and taking care of animals.

“His brothers used to ride the animals to herd or fetch the cattle from an enclosure.

“And Gutinho always wanted to be the one riding too.”

Gutinho, whose full name is Augusto da Barbosa da Silva, is the third of Ana Paula and Claudson Barbosa’s four children.

The family lives in a rural part of Girau do Ponciano – a town in north-eastern Brazil’s hinterland.

According to Ana, Gutinho trains all the animals himself, as reported by What’s The Jam.

She added: “He’s the one who trains the pig and the other animals.

“The little pig only lets him ride her, she won’t let anyone else.

“He’s also tamed the donkeys and is always running around with the dogs.”

Speaking about his beloved Foguete, Gutinho himself told local media: “She’s almost fully tamed.”

Mum Ana has posted videos of his morning rides on Instagram.

She said in the caption: “School starts at 1 pm.

“Me leaving the house at 12:59.”

Other videos have gone viral – with 1.5m and 40m views respectively – show pet pig Foguete, kitted out in Adidas shorts while chauffeuring the lad.

And a different clip – watched 54.8m times – shows Foguete looking stylish in skin-tight denim shorts.

Gutinho is also a skilled rider of other farm animals.

Gutinho’s Instagram page boasts 1.2 million followers. His brothers do the filming, while the account is managed by his mum.
