I received a call from local residents reporting that a male calf had been lying and occasionally standing in the same spot for three days, unable to walk. Upon visiting the location, we discovered that he had sustained a fracture in his front leg after being hit by a vehicle.
After notifying the authorities, we immediately rescued him and brought him to our sanctuary for treatment.
Our veterinarian diagnosed him with a closed fracture in the left metacarpal bone. Despite his injury, he was consuming food and water normally. The fracture was carefully reduced, and a plaster of Paris (POP) bandage was applied. He was also treated with antibiotics, antihistamines, anti-inflammatory medication, and a B-complex supplement to support his recovery.
We are closely monitoring his progress and are dedicated to ensuring his full rehabilitation.
