- The teenager was killed by a herd of pigs at her parents' farm in Russia
A teenager has been horrifically mauled to death by her own pigs, after she was knocked unconscious by a 'large aggressive sow' while she fed them.
Milena Shevelyova was just 17 when she was killed by the herd of pigs at her family's farm in Krasnoyarsk region of Russia that she was left in charge of as her parents visited a nearby city.
As she went into the small barn to feed the beasts, she was knocked out by a 'large and aggressive' sow, before 'all the other pigs attacked her', according to local media.
She had multiple wounds to her head and body from 'pig bites'.
Her worried parents could not reach her by phone and asked a friend to check on her.
'He found the body,' said the report.
'The parents told the police that the pig had always been angry and aggressive.'
A paramedic team confirmed the girl's death, and the prosecutor of Krasnoyarsk's Uzhursky District immediately went to the scene.
'Her body was sent for a forensic medical examination, the results of which will determine the exact cause of death,' said a statement.
'The conditions that contributed to the tragedy are being established.
'If there are grounds, all necessary prosecutorial measures will be taken.'
A criminal case into death by negligence has been opened.
The victim's boyfriend Vladimir Bedny, 18, posted: 'You will forever remain in my heart.
'Forgive me for everything, my most beloved girl.'
