There are countless exotic and wild animals that can be created by folding a piece of paper: jumping frogs, birds flapping their wings or jumping cones. What if you want to make an origami farm? You can make a simple pig and place it in the yard of your "farm". After all, how can a farm exist without at least one pig?
Steps
Step 1. Start with a square piece of paper
Step 2. Fold the top and bottom to the center
Step 3. Fold the four corners towards the center
Step 4. Reverse the creases you just made and return them to the position of the previous step
Step 5. Fold the two triangular ends towards the center
You will get a rectangle. Undo the creases you just made.
Step 6. Flatten the triangles at the ends
Step 7. Repeat for the other three corners
Step 8. Fold the model vertically in half, leaving the corners on the outside
Step 9. Fold the inside of the triangle in half facing down to create the paws
Step 10. Repeat for all four triangles, front and back
Step 11. Fold the triangle to the left (on itself) at the end of the paw and undo the crease
Step 12. Reopen the fold and turn the last fold you made inside out
Step 13. Locate the inside point of the fold and fold it outwards
Step 14. Fold the stitch on the other edge, not quite to the extreme, but slightly higher
Step 15. Unfold the fold and fold it back in reverse
Step 16. Raise the pig
All done.
