"We have 19 days to vet and place as many of these pigs as possible before the state of Kentucky euthanizes them. There has never been a more desperate time in the pig community as there is right now."
The hoarding situation was a result of the owner not getting the pigs spayed or neutered and failing to keep the male and female pigs separated, the Pig Advocates League said in its Facebook post.

"We need homes for as many as possible! We are also looking for rescues/sanctuaries that can provide temporary holding for pigs going to homes."
