Animal Photo of the Week: Riley

This sweet Animal Photo of the Week features the incredible Riley! Found at a New York stockyard, where he was on the verge of death, this little piglet was scooped up by our Emergency Rescue Team just in time and has since found refuge at our New York Shelter. If it weren’t for member support of our Emergency Rescue Fund, Riley’s rescue and recovery would not have been possible. But thanks to the generous contributions we received from people like you, this tiny piglet will now know nothing but loving hands for the rest of his days. Read more about him and get a full update on his progress here.
