About a year ago, a thread discussed the question of legality of distributing copyrighted sounds on Hive. Now Warcraft II has been made available again on GOG, this question is just as topical as ever.
It's tricky: the rules on Hive allow the use of Blizzard material from other games (WoW models, WC2 sounds, etc) in your maps, provided that Blizzard is credited; but the rules also don't allow to discuss piracy matters, and I'm not sure we are legally allowed to distribute thoses resources.. even though it can be found in several custom maps.

If I'm allowed to, I'd be happy to send you the sounds (I have all of them, if you need more than just the pig farm), but maybe it would be best to wait for staff's approval?

I know this is not what you asked for, but there is actually an unused Pig Farm sound file in Warcraft 3. The standard PigFarm sound set doesn't work since it mistakenly references the sound file from an incorrect directory. The sound set will work if you import the file and set its path to:
Buildings\Orc\PigFarm\PigFarmWhat1.wav
