A 56-year-old woman has been eaten alive by pigs after collapsing in their pen, Russian media report.

After venturing out to feed the animals in a village in the central Russian region of Udmurtia, the farmer reportedly fainted or suffered an epileptic seizure, BBC reported. The hungry animals then descended on the unnamed woman, reportedly eating her ears, face and shoulders.

Her husband later found the body. She reportedly died of blood loss. Local media say he had gone to bed early the day before he was feeling unwell. After waking to find his wife missing, he came upon her half-eaten body in the pen. Their farm is in a village in the Malopurginsky district of Udmurtia, east of the city of Kazan. Media reports said an investigation into the incident has been launched.
