Pig in Australia Steals 18 Beers from Campers, Gets Drunk, Fights Cow

Summary: A feral pig caused a lot of problems in one Australian camping area when it stole a bunch of beer from campers and then got into a fight with a cow.

A feral pig in Australia has caused a lot of problems recently. The pig has caused so many problems that campers have been warned to lock up their food and beverages.

The pig caused an issue at the DeGrey River rest stop near Port Hedland, according to The Guardian and ABC.

Believe it or not, the pig was spotted stealing three six-packs of beer and then ripping into trash bags for food.

One camper even told the news a story about the pig guzzling the beer prior to getting into a fight with a cow.

“In the middle of the night these people camping opposite us heard a noise, so they got their torch out and shone it on the pig and there he was, scrunching away at their cans,” said one camper.

“Then he went and raided all the rubbish bags. There were some other people camped right on the river and they saw him being chased around their vehicle by a cow.”

Feral pigs are unwelcome in parts of Australia due to the many diseases they carry that can affect livestock.

Should the campers have locked up their beer and food? Share your opinion in our poll below.
