Nobody thought this tiny piglet would survive. After falling off a factory farm truck, she ends up in a small animal refuge in North Carolina. "All we can do at this point is show her that she's loved, and hopefully she'll perk up," the shelter worker said. A video diary chronicles the piglet's recovery -- from lifeless to curious to playful. When the refuge realizes it's too full -- with over 100 animals and just a mother and son tending to them during the days -- a sanctuary in Florida offers to take in Marley, as the piglet has been named. A mutual friend driving down with rescued calf Eli picks up Marley along the way. That's when the friendship began. Both orphans, Marley and Eli instantly comfort each other along the drive. Two months later, the unlikely duo have become family in their new home.
