Me and my dad were driving and I saw a dead baby pig as we passed him I noticed he lifted his head. We picked him up and he must be about 25lbs. He has scrapes but nothing to serious. He will not stand. He can move his legs but just lays on his side breathing with mouth closed.

I offered water and food with no interest. Any ideas? I sure hope he is not internally bleeding. He can open his eyes as well. I have him in a larger plastic container on two towels and he is covered up and tucked in for warmth.

Is it possible he is in shock?
