(205,927 posts)9. I did wonder if that was the case, the piglet looks like a baby
But they can make anything look so realistic these days. I was recently discussing with my brother about the wolf who plays "the flu" in those commercials that are on constantly these days has to be virtual...

(34,073 posts)10. i don't know the wolf commercial
but that little pig was too perfect and that ball seemed to move too easily over bumps
ok, i googled and i'm guessing this is the commercial (or a similar one you're referring to)
i'm thinking it's a cgi wolf
Rhiannon12866
(205,927 posts)11. Yup, that's the one. It's on every commercial break in these parts
And of course I felt bad for the wolf, LOL. Speaking of which, I got my flu shot last week, so I was hoping to convince my brother to get his, too.
