Pig

Morgan

Rescue-versary: May 23, 2020

Rescued in May 2020 after falling off a transport truck onto an interstate highway in Morgan, UT. Animal control took him in, and since no one claimed him, we were able to rescue him.

Personality: Enjoys taking long naps, hanging out with Amora, and expressing how he feels.
