3 legged sulcata gets a 4th "leg"

[Levi the Leopard]

Has anyone seen this? I found it in the google images on accident and thought it was super interesting

A sulcata tortoise gets an office chair wheel glued to it's carapace to act as a 4th leg.

Poor guy indeed. Nice that they could help him tho.

I think it could have used a taller wheel, then there would be less of a "limp". Maby they will figure that out.
