This little piggy has gone through some serious struggles. At a Mardi Gras celebration, this piglet faced a cruel fate when he was thrown around like a football.

Thankfully, a better future awaits him. He was rescued by the Humane Society of Louisiana!

A bystander witnessed the atrocious act of abuse and quickly stepped in to retrieve the piglet. Once she was safe, she gave the piglet to a friend who moved him straight to the Humane Society.

This piglet didn’t deserve the terrible treatment he received at Mardi Gras and, thankfully, is on his way to a better life now.

Thank goodness for this observant and action-taking bystander.

“That’s one lucky piglet. How cruel to toss a loving creature like a football into a crowd. Grateful for the humanity of its savior,” shared one viewer.

This atrocious piglet abuse at Mardi Gras would have continued without the bystander acting fast. When you see unkind things happening around you, be sure to take action. It can save a life.
