The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) have been tasked to investigate an alleged theft of 44 pigs from a Stratford-area farm.

Although only just discovered that the pigs are missing from the farm in Huron West, northwest of Stratford, the OPP said that the incident may have occurred between March 1 and June 21, 2022, by unknown persons.

The missing 44 pigs ranged in weight between 60 and 200 pounds, and have an estimated value of $12,000.

The OPP asks for anyone with information to please come forward.
