A 12-year-old, African spur-thighed tortoise recently had its left front leg amputated at Washington State University's College of Veterinary Medicine and is doing just fine with a swivelling wheel attached to his shell.
The tortoise was relinquished by its owner on April 20 because the animal's leg had suffered a severe thermal injury and tissue damage from an unknown source. The veterinarian making the initial diagnosis referred the tortoise and its ownership to WSU's veterinary teaching hospital for definitive care. In this case, the injury was life-threatening so the decision to amputate was made.
Subsequent surgery by Dr. Courtney Watkins, a final year surgery resident, and Dr. Nickol Finch, head of WSU's Exotic Animal Service required that the limb be amputated at the shoulder and, as a precaution, that a temporary feeding tube be surgically implanted.
To help the animal ambulate after the surgery, a small swiveling ball-type caster was attached to its shell with an epoxy adhesive. The animal took to his new prosthetic quickly with little encouragement and ambulates well on most surfaces.
"Understandably, complicated amputations in tortoises are not common surgeries so we did not know how well he would eat afterwards," said Dr. Finch. "The feeding tube just ensured we could keep his nutrition up."
The nutritional strategy worked. On admission, the tortoise weighed almost 20 pounds and today weighs more than 23 pounds.
The tortoise is part of a larger group of similar animals native to northern Africa known as sulcata tortoises. They are increasingly found in the U.S. pet trade and ...

PARALYSED DOG WALKS AGAIN AFTER PIONEERING TREATMENT
A dog who was paralysed has taken his first steps after pioneering treatment by scientists at Cambridge University.
Experts hope the procedure could eventually be used to help humans with severe spinal injuries after its success in getting pet pooch Henry back on his feet.
Henry, a smooth-haired Miniature Dachsund, was unable to walk after discs ruptured in his spine last November.
Now the six-year-old dog is walking and wagging his tail after scientists at Cambridge Veterinary School took cells from his nose and injected them back into his spine.
"It's incredible, I didn't think Henry would ever be able to walk again, but over the last few months he has been wagging his tail and taking small steps," said owner Sarah Beech, 34, from Birmingham.
"The vet told me to put him to sleep because he wouldn't have a very good quality of life and he was very depressed.
"But this treatment has really helped."
Henry had always enjoyed going for walks but suddenly lost the use of his legs about a year ago.
"One day he yelped when I picked him up and two days later he couldn't walk," she added.
"The discs in his back were pushing into his spinal cord and eventually he lost the use of his back legs and continence.
"I think he may have fallen down the stairs at some point before I bought him as his spine was quite badly damaged."
Henry was given an operation to ease the pressure on his spine, but it didn't work.
Then Sarah heard about the new treatment for severe spinal cord injuries and decided to enlist him in the trial....

The Darwin egg
Lost Darwin egg rediscovered at Cambridge University's Zoology Museum, Britain - 09 Apr 2009
The only egg known to exist from Charles Darwin's famous voyage on the HMS Beagle has been rediscovered in a museum drawer.
The chocolate brown egg was one of 16 collected by the naturalist on his historic trip from 1831 to 1836 but it is the only one of the eggs whose whereabouts is known today.
And records suggest that Darwin himself was responsible for the damage caused to the heavily cracked Common Tinamou egg after packing it in a box which was too small.
Amazingly it was rediscovered by volunteer Liz Wetton, 80, who was cataloguing and re-boxing the bird egg collection at Cambridge University's Zoology Museum.
She observed the specimen had C. Darwin written on it before moving to the next drawer.
But it was only when Matthew Lowe, the collections manager, was reviewing her work that he discovered no one knew about the existence of this specimen.
"There are so many historical treasures in the collection, Liz did not realise this was a new discovery," he said.
