From Something to Someone: Valuing Jack, Allan, and Other Pigs
|
|
After “this little piggy went to market,” Jack and his friend Allan went home to Sanctuary. The boys—a Yorkshire pig and Hampshire/Duroc cross, respectively—were both raised for production purposes. They met at Lollypop Farm, the Humane Society of Greater Rochester, and are friendly and rambunctious boys with a bit of an eye for trouble.
Mischievous behaviors aside, these are signs of social and problem-solving skills which likely helped the boys survive. Jack and Allan like all pigs are social, sentient, and intelligent. Learn more about their rescue story, life at Sanctuary, and the complexity of these sentient beings.
