Merlin the Pig, who boasts a staggering 1.1 million Instagram followers, recently earned a Guinness World Record for his social media stardom.

The 4-year-old Mini Vietnamese potbelly, which lives in Sacramento, Calif., took home the title for the most followers on Instagram for a pig.

The popular pig is famous for starring in videos where he presses buttons that play voice recordings to express his feelings and desires.

“Merlin has over 30 buttons in the house that he uses regularly, sparking conversation online about just how intelligent, emotional, and human-like pigs can be when given the time, patience and positive reinforcement,” the record book explained.

Congratulations Merlin.
