Flatulent pig causes gas panic
A suspected gas leak on a farm in Australia has turned out to be the fault of a particularly anally-vocal pig.

The farmer called the emergency services on getting whiff of what appeared to be escaping gas.
Two fire engines rushed to the scene of the incident in Axedale, a town in the south east of the country.
The Daily Telegraph reported fire captain Peter Harkins as saying: "When we got [to the farm], as we drove up the driveway, there was this huge sow."
"It was very obvious where the gas was coming from. We could not only smell it, but we heard it and it was quite funny."
He added: "She got very excited when two trucks and 15 [firemen] turned up and she squealed and farted and squealed and farted.
"I haven't heard too many pigs fart but I would describe it as very full-on."
