This beautiful trumpeter swan cygnet, came into our care with a broken right femur (thigh) bone. NWC’s Dr. Nellissa performed surgery, carefully aligning the bone and placing pins to hold it in position while it heals. During recovery, he had been enjoying his meals while supported in his sling. No longer needing the sling, he is now walking and putting weight on his healing leg. Seeing him back on both feet is an encouraging sign as his recovery continues.
