Tamworth Two

The Tamworth Two ( 1997-8. October 2010 and 1997-23. May 2011) were two pigs that were famous in the late 1990s in England. They escaped from a van that they should go in Malmsbury, Wiltshire to the butcher in January 1998. The two Tamworth pigs, which were later called by the media, Butch and Sundance, there were just over a week on the run and excited at this time great public interest in the UK and internationally.
