Heavy floods in Anhui trapped 6,000 pigs inside a factory farm earlier this week. The farmer thought he would have to say a tearful goodbye to his beloved porkers, but there is still hope! A rescue team arrived this morning in a last ditch effort to make sure that they all didn’t turn into hogwash.
The team is using tractors and trucks to get the pigs out of there, reports ifeng.com.
Huge areas have been flooded and at least 130 people have been killed as a result. The thousands of pigs look likely to be the next casualty.
