Sweltering summer temperatures are compounding the dangers faced by animals left to fend for themselves in the devastated city of Vovchansk, Ukraine. Recently, PETA-supported rescuers found a pig who was so exhausted from heatstroke—pigs can’t sweat, and she had no way to cool down—that she couldn’t stand. Watch as the team rescues this gentle soul and provides her with the water she needs to get back on her feet before whisking her away to their safe haven for hundreds of animals, including pigs, goats, sheep, and horses.
