Camel Walks Again with New Leg

Tuesday, 22 July, 2025134 words2 minutes
In Karachi, Pakistan, a young camel named Cammie has been given a new chance at life. After losing her front leg in an unfortunate incident, Cammie received a prosthetic leg, allowing her to walk again.
The animal shelter where Cammie lives arranged for the artificial limb to be made by a company in the United States. When Cammie took her first steps with the new leg, the shelter staff were overcome with emotion. It was a significant milestone in her recovery.
To help Cammie adjust, the shelter introduced another young camel named Callie as a companion. Callie's presence has been comforting for Cammie, encouraging her to try standing and walking. The veterinarians say it will take some time for Cammie to fully adapt to her new leg, but they are optimistic about her progress.
