'''Bodil Joensen''' or '''Bodil Jørgensen''' ([[1944]]-[[1985]]) was a [[Denmark|Danish]] [[pornographic actor]] born in the village [[Greve municipality|Hundige]], near [[Copenhagen]]. At the age of 12, Bodil was violently raped by a stranger in a railway station. On returning home to tell her mother, she was beaten and to shock her mother, vowed to sleep with [[boar]]s.

Her [[career]] in [[pornography]] began at age 17 when she appeared in "light [[Sexual fetishism|fetish]]" pornography before establishing herself in the [[bestiality]] [[Genre|subgenre]]. She starred in a number of [[feature film]]s and [[Short film|short]]s, in which she and other actors had sex with various [[animal]] [[species]].

She drew special attention as the ''Boar Girl'', a reputation earned from her live performances with swine, as well as her participation in films shot with pigs on her own breeding centre. The movies she appeared in combined a peculiar blend of the "tolerant contemporary Danish society" image and [[Scandinavia]]n rustic [[nostalgia]]. The prototypical film of this type is ''A Summer Day'' ([[1970]]) by Shinkichi Tajiri, showing her with animals on her farm to the tune of Beethoven's [[Symphony No. 6 (Beethoven)|Sixth Symphony]]. What made her famous worldwide, however, was the unusual nature of the sexual acts she performed. In 1981, following a change in Denmarks laws, she went to prison for 30 days for neglecting her animals.

After [[1972]], she experienced a sharp deterioration, undergoing very obvious physical and psychological changes, first working as a "live show" and "sexual role play" girl and then ending up in straight street prostitution. She gave her last interview in [[1980]]<ref>[http://fakepix.com/story/bodil-interview.html Interview with Bodil Joensen] Warning: Other parts of this website are pornographic.</ref> and many believed her to have committed [[suicide]], however in a [[2006]] [[UK]] documentary, "The Search For Animal Farm",<ref>Screened on [[Channel 4]] on the [[April 20]] [[2006]].</ref> it was stated by a close friend of Bodil's that she died on [[January 3]], [[1985]] from [[cirrhosis of the liver]]. The program included footage of her gravestone.
