Las flatulencias de un cerdo desencadenan una falsa alarma por una fuga de gas
Las ventosidades de un cerdo eran la causa del olor, pero los vecinos de Axedale, en Australia, pensaron por un momento que había una fuga de gas. Por esa razón se presentaron, en plena noche, dos camiones con 15 bomberos para averiguar el origen del escape. Finalmente el culpable, un cerdo de 120 kilos, fue identificado, según informa el "Herald Sun". El jefe de bomberos, Peter Harkins, dijo: "Llegamos a la propiedad y el olor era ya muy fuerte en las cercanías. Cuando encontramos al cerdo, no paraba de chillar y tirarse pedos"

Flatulent pig sparks gas leak alert

A flatulent pig triggered a minor emergency in Australia when smells wafting from her farts sparked gas leak fears.


Two fire engines and 15 firefighters turned out in darkness to search for the source of the 'leak' at Axedale, near Bendigo, Victoria.

Eventually, the culprit - a 120kg pet sow - was identified, reports the Melbourne Herald Sun.

Fire chief Peter Harkins said: "We got to the property and we could smell a very strong odour in the vicinity.

"It didn't take us too long to work it out because we could both smell and hear her.

"She got very excited when two trucks and 15 firies (firefighters) turned up and she squealed and farted and squealed and farted.

"I haven't heard too many pigs fart but I would describe it as very full-on."

Mr Harkins said the family had done the right thing by calling emergency services to report the suspected gas leak.
