Wild pig bites off a finger

A DOG walker’s finger was bitten off by a wild boar.

Clive Lilley, 53, became the first person in Britain attacked by one of the booming population of feral pigs.

He was with his labrador on a woodland track in Lydney, Forest of Dean, Glos, when the boar burst out of the undergrowth.

When Clive removed his glove, the end of his finger fell out.

He said: “I called an ambulance which took me to hospital to have it sewn up.

“They told me it should grow back around as it did not take the nail off.”
