Latest News on the Runaway Piglet

Latest News on the Runaway Piglet.

Following yesterday’s surprise discovery of baby ‘Al’ the runaway piglet in the Alpaca Pen the Staff of Wheelgate Family Theme Park, Mansfield Nottingham - have been kept very busy.

Farm staff were very shocked yesterday to find the approximately 1 week old piglet in their Alpaca pen especially seeing as though Wheelgate Park does not have any pigs apart from Dave the Male Kune Kune Pig. Over the past 24 hours, staff have been contacting all local farms and local farm parks to try and locate were Al has come from, but so far no joy.

As poor little Al is so young and unsure as to how long he had been outside in the cold for, he has required a lot of TLC, which is usually provided by the mother. Wheelgate Catering Manager Jay Bloomfield took on a surrogacy role last night and took little Al home to keep him warm and provide his bottle-feeds at various intervals throughout the night. It’s been a long night but little Al seems to be merrily bouncing around this morning.

So 24 hours on and the search for Al’s Mum continues... We wonder what news is in store for today
