Last week wild pigs grabbed the headlines in Germany after a boar was seen running off with a nudist's belongings.
The sow and piglets caused much mirth at the Berlin swimming site on the Teufelsee, after stealing unsuspecting bathers' belongings. Photos of that determined nudist giving chase were circulated around the world.
However wild boar are becoming a pig of a problem across the Bundesländer.
Just when they thought it was safe to go back in the water, beachgoers in north Germany had an encounter with another wild pig.
Holiday makers on the Schönhagen beach couldn't believe their eyes when they saw a small black object cutting through the waves. In a video obtained by Associated Press, the animal can be seen coming closer and closer. Families clear their children from the beach front and voices can be heard yelling "clear the way". One can just imagine the Jaws theme building to a crescendo.
