Quote:Car thieves cornered by pigs
May 25, 2008 12:00am
TWO teenage car thieves had to call police for help after getting cornered - by a herd of wild boar.
Dieter Meier and Reiner Klose, both 18, ditched the car and bolted into thick forest as they were chased by police in Germany's Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania region.
The dodged the cops and decided to hole up and wait until the next day - until they were attacked by the pigs.
The animals wouldn't go away even when they fled up a tree, forcing the pair to call police. They were arrested straight away.
"They were petrified by the boar. They decided arrest was better than the pigs," a police spokesman said.
Lucky thing for them it wasn't beavers. That tree would have been taken down, and they would have been at the animals' mercy.

Are beavers known for their mercilessness?
You ever see one attack a tree?

Don't say nuttin' aboot beavers.
You're beaverist, ain't you?
I have long admired the beaver, for its ferocity and sense of self.
who'd be scared of a pig.
Ive raised pigs. Pigs can be nice "Arnold Zipfle" types one minute and then quickly become vicious snarling beasts . After several close calls with pigs we quit raising em. The only stock dog can handle a full grown boar or sow with kindle is a catahoula. A dog without fear. The pigs know a catahoula and respect it.
Pigs cant look up, so I wonder whethre the story is true. MAny hunters, chased by vicous javelinas or peccaries, will climb something, even a rock wall, and the pigs think the guy just disappeared and they never look up. IS it the pigs anatomy?r are they just unaware of te sky? These questions are being worked on by top scientists as we speak.
I've heard of running to pigs, but from them?
