The Dunedin woman straddled by a dribbling pig was nursing bad bruises yesterday but holds no grudge against the stinky swine.
The owner says his 150kg kunekune pig, Boris, was simply seeking affection.
The woman, who did not want to be named, said several of the stories circulating in the
national media about the attack on her by a pig on Purakaunui Rd on Sunday were a bit curly so she set the record straight yesterday.
She was driving to her Purakaunui Rd home when about 300m from her driveway, she stopped after seeing a large pig chase traffic.
"You can't leave a big pig in the middle of the road - it's a bit dangerous."
