A pig that gained local attention after running loose through the streets of West Hollywood has been officially adopted. The animal, nicknamed "Wilbur" in reference to the character from "Charlotte's Web," was secured by a Grammy-winning songwriter following a silent auction held Thursday morning by the West Los Angeles Animal Services Center.
The pig is slated to be relocated to the songwriter's private sanctuary. The auction process served as the final step in the animal's transition from a stray found in a metropolitan area to a permanent resident under the care of the Oscar-nominated musician.
