Newport: Pig owners reunited with Gertie who was dumped on a mountain

A 20-stone (127kg) pig has been reunited with its owners after apparently being dumped on a mountain.

It is thought two-year-old Gertie was stolen and possibly hidden for a time - after she was found 40 miles (64km) from home.

Owner Holly, from Newport, said she was "over the moon" after finding her wandering on the old Llanharan opencast mining site in Rhondda Cynon Taf.

This was on Saturday after she had been missing for two days.

"I sobbed when I saw her I just burst into tears, I didn't expect to find her alive," Holly said.

"If she was alive I expected her to be injured but she's OK.

"It's appalling. Who takes a pig, maybe hides her, and dumps her 40 miles away":[]}
