The Chinese New Year is February 5th, and we're going into the Year of the Pig. Pigs are associated with wealth (yay!) and good fortune, meaning that this year should be a lucky one. And, hey, we could all use a little good fortune right about now.

The Chinese Zodiac also says that the Earth Pig (2019's snout-faced mascot) enjoys life and entertainment, so we've rounded up some fun stuff to express your inner piggy. They also "aren't the most romantic people and might need to work on that"—so we've thrown in a few pretties to sweeten the deal.

The Instagram carousel, which the platform labeled as “sensitive content,” shows Noem and the other hunters smiling for the camera and posing with the elk’s carcass as if displaying a trophy from their “super fun hunt.” In several of the photos, Noem’s weapon is positioned beside the animal’s wound, with blood visibly seeping from the injury.
