Dozens of pigs rounded up on Toronto highway after rollover

Emergency crews work to corral pigs onto a pig truck after another pig truck overturned along the eastbound ramp to the Gardiner Expressway from Highway 427 in Toronto, October 4, 2010.

Fifty frightened pigs wandered around a Toronto highway on-ramp early Monday, as 81 others lay dead or dying amid the squealing and grunting cargo of an overturned transport truck.
