A large, pink elusive porcine is on the loose and making trouble in the Sumter, South Carolina area.

Look, I don't mess with pigs.  I was riding and camping at Croft State Park in Spartanburg a few years ago when we came upon evidence of wild pigs.  They cause more damage than you can imagine.  I told myself if I ever roll up on a wild pig on horseback, that would be my last day in that particular park.

But I digress, let's talk about THIS pig.  This one is not wild and is believed to be either an escaped pet or an escaped farm animal probably heading to slaughter.  Either way, he is out and about and causing lots of damage in neighborhoods.  This pig is doing whatever he need to in order to find food and survive.
