A farmer has died after a pig bit off his penis and three of his fingers, it has been reported.

Miguel Anaya Pablo, 60, allegedly decided to start fighting with his pig after a drunken night out in his home town of San Lucas Ojitlan in south-western Mexico’s state of Oaxaca.

Local media reports that the pig became aggressive after the farmer provoked it, jumping up and knocking him over.

The animal then bit off three of the fingers of Mr Pablo’s right hand and his penis.

The farmer was rushed to hospital in the nearby town of Tuxtepec and treated for the bite wounds.

But despite their interventions, doctors could not control the bacterial infections caused by the pig’s bites.

Mr Pablo eventually died some time after the attack. An autopsy has been ordered to find out more about the exact circumstances of his death

Forensics tests are also being carried out. No details of the victim’s family situation were reported.

Yeah I'm always nude when I'm fighting my livestock. Sad story for his family tho.

Darwin awards for this person indeed!

The victim might NOT have been nude, I am not saying he was or was not, I am saying that some larger pigs are able to easily rip cloth and it is a natural fighting behavior in animals to attack the genitals. The story sounds odd I know, but if you have ever handled pigs you know that they are pretty clever animals and some can be unbelievably obstinate and troublesome. Boar hogs are the worst, a sow with piglets can be VERY dangerous, even castrated pigs will give you some trouble, the do NOT heard easily or ever go where you want them to go without some sort of resistance.

I have read that in rural China where little kids run around naked most of the time, it is reasonably common for pigs to bit off the penises of little boys.

I just hope they don't all die because of infections then.
