Giraffes are the world’s taIlest animals, standing proudly on their gorgeous long legs. A giraffe’s life and well-being were challenged when it was born with limb issues.
But, because to the kindness of others, she was able to receive assistance and is now standing tall and proud after wearing customized leg braces.
Fortunately, zoo vets collaborated with orthotists at a clinic to correct the condition and give this calf a second chance.
The clinic specializes in orthotics and prosthetics, however it exclusively works with humans.
They were, however, able to assist the park in developing customized leg braces especially for the giraffee.
The plan worked, and giraffee was soon on his path to greatness owing to his new companions and unique gear.
According to the news release, Aram Mirzayan, a qualified orthotist at the Clinic, remarked, ‘I feel an amazing feeling of satisfaction.’
‘I’ve never worked with such a thing before — it’s one of those once-in-a-lifetime opportunities that you just have to appreciate.’
‘Without these life-saving braces to provide her with support, her leg posture would have been increasingly uncomfy’.
