Please identify this roasted animal

A restaurant I passed this morning in Phnom Penh serves it. Photo attached. Looks like a cross between a pig and a rodent.

    roasted piglet. we have a similar dish here in the Philippines. we call it cochinillo..so tender, you can use a plate to slice the meat.

        Well I was told it's Chinese roast pig, but that's one ugly mug.
