It's rare for pigs to be called cute.

But this little porker is winning hearts at the Wildwood wildlife park.

Harriet the wild boar gave birth to three piglets at the Herne Common park, its first young of 2009.

Proud father is TV star Boris, a magnificent 400lbs wild boar who has appeared on Richard & Judy, Sir David Attenborough’s The Life of Mammals, Blue Peter and many more programmes.

Wildwood Trust is campaigning to save wild boars from being hunted to extinction.
