More than 80 Farm Animals Rescued
from Sainte Genevieve County
The Humane Society of Missouri
and its Longmeadow Rescue Ranch, working in cooperation
with the Sainte Genevieve County Sheriff’s Office,
rescued over 80 animals from an 80-acre
property near the Sainte Genevieve City limits. Among
the animals are approximately 45 potbellied pigs, 14
goats, eight sheep, three donkeys, three burros, two
llamas, a dog and numerous peacocks, chickens and geese.
The animals were living in unsanitary conditions
with no adequate shelter. They had little to no appropriate
feed and many had no access to grazing areas,
causing them to appear underweight. The hooves of many
of the animals appear to have been unattended for some
time.
The rescued animals were brought to the Humane
Society of Missouri’s Longmeadow Rescue Ranch where they received immediate medical attention and proper nutrition.
Apply for adoption of the rescued farm animals
once they are rehabilitated by contacting
Longmeadow Rescue Ranch at 314-802-5712.
