A VERY greedy pig led to a call-out for fire crews near the Powys border after it got stuck in a piece of animal equipment.

Crews from Bishop's Castle and Minsterley were called out after a wild boar got stuck in a local resident’s animal feeding machinery.

The call out took place yesterday evening at 21:25 (September 5) after Fire Control received a call from a local resident reporting the incident, classified as Animal Rescue, at a property in Shelve, not far from the Powys border on the western Stiperstones.

When they arrived, officers found the boar stuck in the animal feeding machinery.

Luckily the animal managed to free itself on its own meaning no action was required by fire crews to remove it.
