Famously animal-loving Jon Stewart is said to have bought a farm in New Jersey, for purposes of giving home to rescued farm animals.
The announcement was made by Farm Sanctuary, which has three of its own pastoral paradises for neglected and abused farm animals.
Stewart and his wife Tracey are well-known animal advocates who have a longstanding relationship with with the group. In fact Tracey has a book about animals coming out in the fall, called Do Unto Others, with some of the proceeds going to Farm Sanctuary.
The couple has a small menagerie of their own already — Tracey told USA Today that their brood currently includes two each of kids, pigs, hamsters, guinea pigs and fish, plus four dogs, three rabbits and a parrot.
“All rescues,” she said. “Except for the children.”
Farm Sanctuary spokesperson Meredith Turner couldn’t give The Huffington Post many details about the Stewarts’ reported farm animal haven, but she did say, “We are ecstatic that there are people in the world like Jon and Tracey who care about the plight of factory farmed animals, and we encourage others to join them in support of Farm Sanctuary’s efforts to rescue, provide shelter and advocacy for these beautiful individuals.”
