WE HAD THE LAW ON OUR SIDE AND ISSI IN OUR HEARTS! Its been a tricky few months at HUHA watching a local pig used for breeding living in filth, sad and depressed. One of Issis caregivers told us that pigs love mud and we should just leave her be. But a year worth of poo and wee accumulating in a pen in our books does not make for mineral rich and refreshing mud baths. Its been a long slow battle getting Issi to freedom. But after her owner was trespassed from his lease holding we finally had an opportunity to get this sweet girl out. With help from the police, yesterday at 5pm we sighed with relief as the gentle giant was loaded on our trailer and heading back to our Kaitoke Sanctuary. Clearly stressed from a life as a breeding sow it was a tearful moment watching Issi walk on grass for the first since being penned. Her eyes are still blood shot from the high stench of her living conditions. But it wont be long before this beautiful girl understands that she is safe....no more breeding, no more pens, no more loneliness. She has 13acres of grass and piggy friends to enjoy and we cant wait to watch her thrive:0) More Issi updates to come:0)
