PORTLAND, Ore. ( KOIN ) — Thanks to “Operation Oink!”, two Oregon animal sanctuaries have welcomed pigs that were freed from an undisclosed research lab.
The Animal Legal Defense Fund announced the release of six pigs on Tuesday. Two pigs were relocated to Leo’s Animal Rescue in Onyx, Calif., while one pair was transported to Portland’s Wildlings Forest Sanctuary and another now lives at Lighthouse Farm Sanctuary in Scio, Ore.
