Espartaco

Espartaco is a male Vietnamese pig, already neutered, who came to La Candela through other companions.

The now-extinct sanctuary in Zaragoza, Liberando Ángeles, was just getting started when it took in Espartaco, but some time later they were forced to close the Sanctuary, so they had to quickly relocate the few animals they had at the time.

This is how Espartaco crossed our destiny and entered our family to stay, becoming one more candlestick. We think the photo says it all about how happy he is living with us.
