This is the hilarious moment a disorientated 18-stone pig ends up in a supermarket to the astonishment of shoppers who resort to the likes of a lettuce to try to coax it outside.
The animal trotted into the Lidl supermarket, having followed customers in from the car park in the popular tourist town of Alcochete, opposite the Portuguese capital Lisbon on the east bank of the River Tagus.
Mobile phone footage taken by an astonished customer showed it making a beeline for the bananas before turning to look at the pasta and other long-life foods on offer on the shelves.
It appeared quite at home in its out-of-the-ordinary setting, resisting a sidekick by one man trying to encourage it to leave and ignoring attempts by other clients to ease it out of a fire exit with a broom and a lettuce.
