MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Just three weeks after a truckload of steers caused havoc on Mexico City's Viaducto
expressway, commuter traffic along the same route was snarled by a truckload of pigs.
Firefighters hammered away for almost two hours to try to free three tiers of caged pigs aboard a farm truck that got
stuck under a bridge on the Viaducto.
On June 21, a herd of 46 steers fled a truck that had become jammed under a low bridge on the Viaducto while
heading to a slaughterhouse.
Local radio complained that no veterinarians were on the scene to ease the plight of the squealing pigs.
"I mean to say, they are living creatures too," said talk radio host Jose Gutierrez Vivo on Radio Red.
One irate caller to the radio show berated the fire brigade for not hosing down excrement that had spilled on to the
road from the truck.

If they need something before they go to the slaughter house what are they going to need when they realize what's happening?
