HARRISTON – A wily hog has been on the loose in the west end of town here for a full week. Two pigs escaped while being unloaded by a Durham area farmer at Harriston Packers on Arthur Street on Aug. 14.
One pig was quickly re-captured, but the other continued to elude pursuers.
The animal has been spotted wandering local backyards and the area along the Maitland River behind the packing plant. A makeshift trap set up by the farmer under an apple tree the reddish-coloured swine was known to frequent failed to corral it.
