The hogs were spotted on the interstate lanes in Spotsylvania and Carolina, according to local media.

Diana Madison came across the scene as she was driving home and revealed that she had seen four pigs. It's unclear how the animals ended up on the highway but at least two were injured on the road.

Bailie Hayden, who posted footage of the incident on Facebook, wrote: ''Well you don't see this every day. I'm not sure what happened because there was no truck or anyone stopped besides normal cars and such. All of them were breathing and living but some worse than others. Poor babies.''
