Pig's Wild Ride: West Hollywood Wanderer Finds Sanctuary

A pig, initially spotted wandering through a West Hollywood neighborhood, unexpectedly became the focus of an adoption contest. After being captured on video and widely shared online, the pig was taken to the West L.A. Animal Shelter, where no owner came forward. This led to four individuals expressing interest in adopting him, prompting the shelter to organize a silent auction to determine his future home. The winning bid was placed by Marcia Zwilling, managing director of the Diane Warren Foundation, on behalf of Oscar-nominated songwriter Diane Warren. Warren, having seen footage of the pig, was moved to ensure his safety. Wilbur is now set to move to Warren's expansive seven-acre sanctuary located in Malibu. There, he will join other rescued animals and reportedly enjoy gourmet salads. A small complication arises as Warren already has another pig named Wilbur, so the newcomer might be renamed, with 'Hollywood' being a suggested option.
