Years ago one of our members decided to add kune kune pigs to her farm. I don't think she expected them to be so large and forceful, just more animals she gave away. She also(for a very brief time) had emus, I believe till the female poked her in the mouth and broke out a tooth.

Luckily ours are fairly gentle. They come when called and are even well behaved enough we began letting them out of their pen to graze. They will be butchered come October/November.
