Green Bay, Wisconsin police helped lure a 300-pound potbellied pig, named Albert, back to his home with fruit snacks after the animal escaped his pen in the city.
"When Albert was questioned as to where he lived, his snout wasn't pointing him in the right direction," authorities said. Sarah Rumpf-Whitten is a writer on the breaking news team for Fox News Digital. You can reach her on Twitter at @s_rumpfwhitten.
Officers went door-to-door until a neighbor was able to identify Albert's owner-who shared with police that Albert had slipped through a gate that had accidentally been left open.
However, Albert was not going to go back to his home without a fight. Police said that the pig had worked up an appetite and had a peculiar taste for fruit snacks.
