OWEN COUNTY, Ind.--Over 80 animals found living in filthy conditions by the Owen County Humane Society need new homes. 

The Owen County Humane Society posted on their Facebook page that they removed pot-bellied pigs, dogs, cats, goats, chickens, rabbits, and a rooster and guinea pig from a property in Poland, Indiana.

83 animals were rescued last week. 

Pictures taken there show the filthy conditions the animals were living in, surrounded by mud and feces. Some of the enclosures had no light or ventilation. 

The Owen County Humane Society says taking in those animals in such a short period of time has put a burden on a rural shelter that’s already at capacity.

They are taking donations too. They say they need $4,800 to help the pigs.
