The story of the Three Little Pigs recently came to life, but in a dramatically different way than the story we’ve all heard. In the Siberian city of Tyumen, a mother and her two piglets snuck out of their farm for a night out on the town.
The pigs had some fun in the snow before taking shelter in a local supermarket. Within minutes the mother pig smelled out the alcohol aisle and used her snout to knock two bottles of cognac on the floor. The three pigs immediately began to lick up their mess as the shop staff called for help. They eventually shooed the pigs out of the store, and their owner later collected them.

One shopper found it amusing and joked ‘We all like a drink at this time of year’. The pig’s escape, and break-in came during a week when most Russians take a long holiday for New Year and Orthodox Christmas Day.
RELATED STORY:
In case you’re wondering, pigs aren’t the only animals who enjoy a night out on the town. In 2017, an opossum broke into a shop in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, and got hammered on bourbon whiskey. You might think that would be lethal for a small animal, but the opossum was able to handle it and sobered up at Emerald Coast Wildlife Refuge to later be released unharmed.
