After having her limb brutally severed earlier this month, Sanghar Camel, now under treatment at CDRS Benji in Karachi, is preparing to stand for the first time since the incident. Promised an artificial leg once fully healed, the camel has shown significant improvement in her recovery, according to Sarah Jahangir, Director of the CDRS Benji Project for Animal Welfare.
Bioniks Pakistan, responsible for crafting the camel’s prosthetic limb, has erected a supportive structure to aid her in standing. The team aims for Camel to stand with assistance by the evening, marking a crucial step in her rehabilitation.
