The Pig War

Another British/American war,Tthe Pig War was started  when a British infantryman shot a pig that was wandering on American soil. The local American militia responded by gathering at the border and waiting for the British to make a move. Eventually the British apologized and the brief war ended, leaving the pig as the only casualty.  This happened from June 1859 to October 1859 so this took for only 4 months. One pig was the only one casualty.
