Took it to the local emergency vet clinic and girl there took it home to her farm. I didn't want it doing its business in my ruck so held it out the window behind the side view mirror the whole way. Got some weird looks too.
That's a tough day for a pig. I can only imagine how happy it was to be held outside a moving truck.

Beats arriving at its destination to be turned into bacon, though.

I called my mom in NY and she is originally from Puerto Rico. Her first words were, "you should take it home and raise it so you can eat it"
