Farmer sends gift of sausages to thank Wiltshire firefighters who rescued piglets and two sows from fire in barnA farmer whose piglets were saved from a barn fire has served the animals up as sausages to thank the firefighters who rescued them. The baby pigs and two sows were freed by firefighters from Pewsey in Wiltshire when a barn went up in flames in February. The farmer, Rachel Rivers, promised she would present the firefighters with organic sausages when the animals were slaughtered for their meat. However, the farmer and firefighters have faced criticism from some who have found the arrangement a little queasy.
