Re: Unsold pigs in Milford, OH to be gassed

Feylin, Thanks for all the additional information.

I just saw an update saying that some of the pigs have been gassed:

Student who goes there: They killed like 10 of them and put em in the freezer
Auto Response from person on LJ: I am away from my computer right now.
Student: =[
person on LJ: [FONT=Arial]how do you know that[/FONT]
Student: Des told me she saw them in the freezer
Student: There's a lady coming to get them
Student: =[
person on LJ: [FONT=Arial]from a guinea pig rescue?[/FONT]
Student: No there frozzen

Someone else replied that this type of thing is pretty common for schools and labs. When they get to a point where they just have too many, they're killed if they can't find homes.

The lab part reminds me that pigs (like rats/mice) are, unfortunately, lab animals that get tested on and disposed of.


I haven't heard if the rescue was able to take in any.
