“I Can Walk Again” — Elephant Takes His First Steps with a Prosthetic Leg, Embracing Hope and Love in His Sanctuary Journey

Meadow, the beaten elephant with a leg injury, arrives at the sanctuary. Meadow (female), one of about 12 animals currently living in the sanctuary, was captured by heartless humans and forced to live a life of constant breeding, but was finally rescued last year. It was done.

Although Meadow is now cared for in a sanctuary, her body has taken a lot of strain from her past abuse, and one of her hind legs has been seriously injured.

Meadow was in constant pain when she walked, and caretakers at the sanctuary wanted to ease her burden in any way they could.
