Pushy Porky

The larder is getting uppity in Australia:

A pig the size of a Shetland pony has trapped an Australian woman in her village home, the national broadcaster reported Tuesday.

Caroline Hayes, 63, has tried leave her house in Uki in northern New South Wales to use the outdoor toilet but says the animal has bitten her and shoved her back inside. Hayes said she and her neighbours began feeding the pig, whom they named Bruce, when it showed up at their homes 10 days ago after its owners could not handle it and let it loose in the rainforest. But it became aggressive, demanding more food and biting her on the leg when she tried to go to the toilet.

"I picked up a broom and poked him out with it and he snapped it in half with his mouth."

Sounds to me like it's time for some Bruce-on-the-barbie.

Rangers from the local Murwillumbah Council tried to rescue her but could not capture the huge animal.

The rangers were due to try to capture the pig again Tuesday...

Hey, those rangers are trying steal your vittles! Better get that sucker cut up and into the deep freeze before they come back.
