HONOLULU (AP) -- Guests at a hotel near Honolulu's airport found a suckling pig in the lobby, but it wasn't on the menu of the luau.

The Hawaiian Humane Society was called to the hotel last week, when an injured 5-week-old female pig was found running around the lobby. It was unclear how the piglet ended up there.
