Fresh suckling pig -where to buy?

Where can I find a fresh suckling pig - the 12-16 pound variety - not the larger pigs - in Manhattan? I'm assuming that the Hispanic population roast a lot of pigs for their special events? Which butchers are they using? Please be specific - name and address if you have it, Thanks!

      just a suggestion...be sure to specify the size that you want and not just "suckling pig". I have been offered 20 lb pigs almost every time when I have asked for sucking pigs. A true suckling pig seems hard to find sometimes.
