Feral pigs on the loose in seaside town
Some say the pigs - seen walking around Silloth in Cumbria - seem happy enough eating grass
A trio of pigs on the loose in a seaside town have left residents both worried for the animals' safety and wary of unexpected wild encounters.Some people said they were frightened after being "confronted" in the dark. Adam Pearson said he saw the roaming animals near Skinburness Road and they "weren't aggressive, they were just getting on with what they were doing".They were "big animals", he said.The pigs are believed to have escaped from farmland near Solway Holiday Park, which was recently sold.
The new park owners said the farmland still belonged to the park's previous owner, Sam Hagen, and it had passed on residents' concerns.Carole Blake said she bumped into the roving swine on an early morning dog walk."I managed to move a bit faster than the pigs and they just carried on heading into Silloth - they were just strolling along, quite happy.
The fore said it had been informed on Tuesday that the animals had been contained and police were not required.
