This great big pig (the one on the right! ๐Ÿ˜‚) is Gandalf ๐Ÿ˜

He is huge! A few metres long and over a metre in height.

He's one of the #53pigs entire boars.

He was rescued from an illegal slaughterhouse in Wales.

Where he was starved and treated brutally.

To survive.....๐Ÿ‘‡
To survive he ate the entrails of others, cannibalised, ate bits of cars...all to stay alive! (he's in the picture below, can you see him?)

The slaughterhouse was raided by authorities, all of the animals removed. But the #53pigs were taken to a Defra Isolation Unit....๐Ÿ‘‡
They were instantly condemned, a court order was served on them.

The order was a destruction order. They were a 'public health' risk, unfit for human consumption. They were labled as diseased due to eating other beings, causing a zoonotic disease...TSE, a swine version of BSE๐Ÿ‘‡

STOP PRESS!! Some rare original lyrics & images have been found. ๐Ÿ“ข

An exclusive from @kirthurgan

Imagine there's no slaughter house
No piggies have to die
No gas chamber below us
Above us only sky

Imagine all the piggies
Living for today
Imagine there's no animal farm
No reason to do harm ๐Ÿท๐Ÿท

globalvegancrowdfunder.org/pigoneer-2000-โ€ฆ
No selfish humans to die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the earthlings
Living life in peace

Squidgy is a #slaughterhouse survivor.

He was terrified of human contact. He'd run, screaming in anticipation of pain if I got too close.

He is a #victim, we must support the #victims of animal agriculture.

We took 91 abused pigs from this cruelty case.

Become a #pigoneer ๐Ÿท
Squidgy lived here ๐Ÿ‘‡

He walked amongst the dead, eating what he could find to survive.

His friends and family violently slaughtered in front of him.

But now he and the other 90 pigs are safe.

To keep him safe we need you! We need you and your friends to become #pigoneers!
To become a #pigoneer is simple and a small gesture of ยฃ2.50 per month. Many #pigoneers can feed this whole herd of what were abused pigs. Every pig in the image above, 91 in total is safe here @BTWsanctuary

A thread for vegans. Please read.

What is her life worth?

What if we could rescue her and all the others trapped alongside her?

We fight every day telling others to #govegan
But what will this mean for the animals trapped in this system?

We say to the carnists... They will all go to sanctuaries in vegan world.

Do we think about how that will work?
After being rescued.

Do you think about what each individual has witnessed?

The PTSDs they experienced?

The cost of feeding each one?

Or do you scroll by and think, they are safe now without thought?

Can I ask if you can think about these questions?

Morning! it's Snouty Saturday! ๐Ÿฝ

One of the #53pigs having a lazy morning in his special piggy barn.

He's safe, loved, warm and cosy which is simply what we all need and want. No matter what species we are.

This little guy was just a piglet when ๐Ÿ‘‡
globalvegancrowdfunder.org/pigoneer-2000-โ€ฆ
he was seized from the illegal slaughterhouse at Bramble Hall Farm.

He then spent the first 9 months of his life in a Defra Isolation Unit under a court disease destruction order.

But after a legal battle he was allowed to come and live here at the sanctuary along with ๐Ÿ‘‡
all the other #53pigs and #53piglets under a special disease restriction license.

We have nearly 100 pigs at the sanctuary. And like many we have had a very difficult year.

Please help us to create a safe, reliable feed fund to help pay the ยฃ1000 per week pig feed costs ๐Ÿ‘‡

This is 30 of the #53pigs. These pigs are so incredibly lucky! They have made it through the following challenges on their lives -
๐Ÿ–Starvation in an illegal slaughterhouse
๐Ÿ–Avoiding slaughter in a illegal slaughterhouse
๐Ÿ–Defra Disease Destruction Order
๐Ÿ–Too aggressive ๐Ÿ‘‡
๐Ÿ– Too aggressive, unsafe to live
๐Ÿ– In agreement with Defra, pigs must not be moved again.
๐Ÿ– Land & facility we use withdrawn and our notice given.
๐Ÿ– A risk Defra would insist on slaughter rather than allowing us to relocate them.
๐Ÿ– The only option acceptable to Defra is ๐Ÿ‘‡
๐Ÿ– for them to be relocated to our own land. But we have only a little land & no facilities.
๐Ÿ– Urgent large scale fencing, temporary set up & start of ground works & barn build!
๐Ÿท Defra sign off temporary set up! The pigs come home to the sanctuaries own land! ๐Ÿ’–
๐Ÿ– Boars ๐Ÿ‘‡
