The pig, named Lucky, will now spend the rest of his days at a sanctuary.
“We assumed that he would be injured by the amount of tumbles he took on the freeway, and it was going like 60 miles per hour,” Gradel said. “But surprisingly, he was okay.”
The rescuers named the pig Lucky, and he lived in the Zajac family’s backyard for the weekend until the All Friends Animal Sanctuary was contacted. The sanctuary, located not too far from the family’s home, took Lucky in. As Lucky continues to grow, he will eventually be moved to a larger pen. Currently, he weighs only 18 pounds, but Pike said he could grow up to 700 or 800 pounds, similar to another resident pig at the sanctuary, named Mister Picklesworth. Lucky may well have escaped a dark future, and now he gets to enjoy his days at the animal sanctuary.
