Pictured is the runaway piglet who ended up swimming into the OCEAN on Covehithe beach, Suffolk with RSPCA inspector Jason Finch.  A piglet caused quite a splash when he went for a swim at the weekend, and had to be rescued from the sea by the RSPCA. See MASONS Story MNPIGLET. The charity was originally called on Sunday (30 November) after reports that the baby pig was stuck at the top of a cliff above Covehithe Beach. When we arrived we found the little animal had scrambled his way down to the beach, but when we approached him to try and take him back to his owner, he turned on his trotters and splashed straight out into the waves, RSPCA inspector Jason Finch said: "I have never seen anything like it. I couldn't believe it when he darted straight into the sea like that.  "He was completely unphased by the bubbling surf and started diving up and down among the waves for ages - upwards of ten minutes. "He became a tiny black dot in the distance and at one point I thought he was heading to France. "I was just wondering whether I would have to dive in myself when he started swimming in the more shallow end of the surf, so I just ran in and grabbed him.  "He was safe and sound and in good health - in fact he did not even seem puffed out. Far fitter than many I know."  The piglet was returned straight to his owner. 4 December 2014
