I found back by chance this old article, which I like to share with you: Australian Wild Pig Drinks 18 Beers, Gets in Fight with Cow
A feral pig ransacked a campsite and drank at least 18 cans of beer before getting into an altercation with a cow in Australia.
The incident, which happened in a remote area of Western Australia at the DeGray River rest area, prompted officials to warn campers to keep their food and alcohol secure.
The wild pig was seen around the campsite for several days last week, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) reported, citing officials who said the animal got into multiple six-packs of beer over the course of a few days.
Fionna Findley, from the government highway division Main Roads, told ABC that the people camping overnight at the rest area said that “the pig stole their beers, drank them and then afterwards proceeded to tear apart the bin liners. We just want to remind everyone when you do pull over, make sure [your food and alcohol] is securely stored because there are a lot of animals out there that are keen for a free feed.”
One camper who reportedly spoke with the affected campers told ABC that the pig got into 18 beers, ransacked the campsite’s garbage bins and got into a fight with a cow.
The camper, who was only identified as Merida, said “there was some other people camped right on the river and they saw him running around their vehicle being chased by a cow. It was going around and around and then it went into the river and swam across to the middle of the river.”
Findley told ABC that that her crews are not equipped to deal with wild pigs, especially if they are drunk. The pig was last seen lying beneath a tree, potentially nursing a hangover.
Update story: Swino Dies: Drunk, Cow-fighting Australian Pig Killed by Vehicle
One month later, the Australian Broadcasting Company (ABC) reported that Main Roads, the government highway division in Western Australia’s Pilbara region, confirmed that a wild pig hit by a vehicle on a motorway was indeed Swino (as was named the pig lover of cold beers, terror of the campers). The pig was identifiable by distinct markings on his ears and by its spotted coloring.
It was unclear whether Swino had been drunk before being struck on the motorway.
