Animals with Prosthetics

Ever since we started following Winter the Dolphin’s story, Jordan and I have been fascinated with animals that use helper legs. I was so excited to stumble onto a Wired magazine article. It’s called Animal Prosthetics Help Human Amputees Move Again.
The slideshow of different animals is really cool. I recommend checking it out. The author, Emily Anthes, wrote a separate blog about two elephants who have survived with the help of prosthetics in Thailand. She had mentioned she thought the two animals deserved more space than the Wired article offered.
