When an elephant lost her leg, he invented a prosthesis for her
When Mosha, an elephant, was two years old, she lost her leg in a landmine injury along the Thai-Burmese border. Luckily, an orthopedic surgeon was able to fit her with the first prosthetic leg ever designed for an elephant. As she has grown, she has needed to be fitted for new ones. But she's never forgotten the doctor who changed her life.
