Lion cub in hydrotherapy



Uploaded by: itnsource
Video Description:
Captive-born lion cub Samira is beating the odds to survive in the most unconventional way. Just 4 days after being born, she sustained a tragic injury when her mother accidentally bit through the tendons of her leg while trying to carry her. Her mother, Saffi, rejected the cub and attempted to bury her in the corner of the enclosure. Samira
apos;s keeper Pete Thompson feared the leg would have to be amputated, but thankfully animal hydrotherapist Roz Chaplin was able to exercise the leg back into fitness.

Animal cruelty? ... ( 1 month ago by gnawershreth)
Animal cruelty? They're trying to help a lion cub survive. It's not like it's getting hurt by touching water and if it makes the lion able to survive I think a bit of water is a good thing. I'm against animal cruelty just like most other people are but some of you guys take it too far. :/ Cool video btw.
