Bossie Boshoff, [24 Jan 2024 Just for interest. This cheetah was completely sound after this surgery and was hunting on a Big 5 area. Ross Elliot at OP did magic. We removed the pin as it was getting lame again, but now is on all 4 legs again. Henry Labuschagne, How did he get injured ? Bossie Boshoff, [24 Jan 2024 at 06:59:48]: I am not completely sure, but I think it was attacked by 2 other cheetah males that all walking together. Henry Labuschagne, [24 Jan 2024 at 07:09:49]: Was it a compound fracture? Are there any hyenas on the farm ? Bossie Boshoff, [24 Jan 2024 at 07:46:31]: Jip, loads of hyenas. At the initial surgical procedure, a small bone was removed that had formed a sequestrum, but a nice clean fracture otherwise.
