While the majority of the land is inhabited by pigs, the sanctuary is home to chickens, turkeys, horses, goats, sheep, donkeys, and a variety of other animals, all of whom have been rescued from human tyranny. On August 17, more than 30 activists traveled to PIGS for COK's First PIGS Service Day. After a long morning of work, PIGS provided us with a vegan lunch which was followed by a relaxing afternoon of playing with and feeding the animals. We were given the opportunity to see and play with the animals. Most importantly, we were able to see first-hand those for whom we are fighting.
Activists are busy at work cleaning one of the many fields.
