Missing a pig? Call the sheriff's office.
In the latest of more than a half-dozen pigs discovered on the lam in Jacksonville in the last few years, the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office is again asking for help finding the owners of two pigs discovered on the Northside.
One pig was found on Tuesday and to one's surprise JSO tweeted out they had found another pig on Wednesday afternoon.
"Where are these pigs going? Has word gotten out to the piggies that JSO will let them hang out with police horses?" JSO tweeted.
On Tuesday, JSO got a little clever when tweeting about the first found pig, "How do pigs write top secret messages?" JSO tweeted. "With invisible oink!"
The tweet goes on to say officers found the pig and took him safely into "JSO custody." Anyone who knows where the pig belongs is urged to call 904-630-0500.
"Let’s help this piggy squeal with joy by finding his mom and dad!" the tweet says. "He was found on the Northside and is safe in JSO custody. Call 904-630-0500 if you know where he belongs!"

The sheriff's office typically resorts to pun-filled captions aiming to grab the attentions of lost swine's owners. Last April, police discovered a pig on Buttercup Street in the Jacksonville Heights area and shared her photo on Twitter as well.
"Weee have a little predOINKament," the Tweet says. "This little piggy was located on Buttercup Street and doesn’t know her way home. Please be a ham and share her photo. We are bacon you to help us find her parents. You can call #JSO at 904-630-0500 if you know Miss Piggy’s address."
