The renegade pig Wilbur has been caught

It was with mixed emotions that I read the article on the local newspaper’s website that the Vietnamese Pot Bellied pig that has been running loose since early May has been captured.  I had been hoping that the pig would be captured before winter, so I was glad that he has been caught and is now safe and sound.  And I thought it was funny that the bait used to catch him was french fries.  Seems to me you could catch a lot of things using french fries as bait!  What did upset me was reading that the police captured him by baiting him with fries and then using a tazer to stun the little guy.  That made me sad because I have seen television news stories about how much a tazer hurts!  In the long run, however, the guy is caught and is safe, and that is the important thing!
