A hungry javelina in Arizona ended up
going for a drive when it became trapped inside an empty car and bumped it into
neutral.
亞利桑那州一隻飢餓的西貒最後開車兜風，當牠被困在一台空車裡並打到空檔。
Deputies in Yavapai County responded to a
call last week in Cornville, a community 10 miles south of Sedona, about a
javelina stuck in a Subaru station wagon. Javelinas are pig-like animals that
are native to desert environments.
亞瓦派郡警察上週回應一通塞多納市以南10英里科恩維爾社區致電，指有一隻西貒困在速霸陸旅行車裡。西貒是種像豬的動物，原生於沙漠環境。
After speaking with the car’s owner and
other residents, they determined the car’s hatch back had been left open
overnight.
和車主及其他居民聊過後，他們斷定這台車的後艙門開了整夜。
The javelina jumped in to get to a bag of
Cheetos. The hatch then closed, trapping the animal inside. Authorities say the
javelina ripped off a portion of the dashboard and the inside of a door in an
attempt to escape.
這隻西貒為了拿一包「奇多」跳進去。後艙門接著關了起來，把這隻動物困在裡頭。當局說，這隻西貒扯掉一部分儀表板和一扇門內部，試圖逃脫。
The animal then managed to knock the car
into neutral, causing it to roll down the driveway and across the street. The
Subaru came to a rest, and the javelina was not injured. （AP）
