This is the touching video of a sow who jumped from a flatbed truck on route to the slaughterhouse. The sow, now named Rita, was found by the side of the road by animal control and taken to the nearest facility which happened to be a shelter for stray cats and dogs. Whilst in their care, Rita gave birth to 14 piglets.
The shelter waited for someone to claim Rita and her piglets as per the law, but fortunately for the sow and her 9 surviving piglets no one came. Animal Place re-homed Rita and her family. The video below shows Rita and her piglets enjoying life at their new home in Grass Valley, California.
