Full survival story 🤍
7 days ago, Mali had an emergency C-section. We didn’t know if she and her calf would survive.
The calf was oversized and stuck in the birth canal, which caused severe pressure on Mali’s pelvic nerves. She temporarily lost feeling in her hind legs.
The baby suffered trauma to his front legs, along with a swollen head and tongue.
They spent the night outside in the meadow. We live in the wilderness, and there was no way we could leave them there — cold, exhausted, and unable to get up.
It was challenge after challenge…
The baby couldn’t nurse because of his swollen tongue, so we fed him colostrum, drop by drop.
Slowly, he gained strength and tried to stand — but his front legs were badly affected.
We made splints to support his stretched tendons, and that changed everything ❤️
Mali slowly started getting up with our help. After 4 days of antibiotics, our amazing vet gave us the best news — she is out of danger.
Although she accepts her calf, she still doesn’t let him nurse. We are trying every day. He is eager, and he knows exactly where the milk comes from 😊
Thankfully, she allows me to milk her, so the little one can get the nourishment he needs.
This is a story of life that always finds a way…
Priča o preživljavanju 🤍
Prije 7 dana, Mali je imala hitni carski rez. Nismo znali hoće li ona i tele preživjeti.
Tele je bilo preveliko i zapelo u rodnom kanalu, što je izazvalo jak pritisak na živce u zdjelici. Mali je privremeno izgubila osjet u stražnjim nogama.
Mali je pretrpio traumu prednjih nogu, a glava i jezik su mu bili natečeni.
Noć su proveli vani na livadi. Živimo u divljini i nije bilo načina da ih ostavimo vani – hladno, iscrpljeni, a ona nije mogla ustati.
Izazov je slijedio izazov…
Tele nije moglo sisati zbog natečenog jezika, pa smo mu davali kolostrum kap po kap.
Polako je dobivao snagu i pokušavao ustati – ali prednje noge bile su jako oštećene.
Napravili smo mu udlage za ispravljanje tetiva, i to je promijenilo sve ❤️
Mali je polako počela ustajati uz našu pomoć. Nakon 4 dana antibiotika, naš sjajan veterinar nam je dao najbolju vijest – ona je izvan opasnosti.
Iako prihvaća svoje tele, još mu ne dopušta sisanje. Svaki dan pokušavamo. Tele je znatiželjno i zna odakle dolazi mlijeko 😊
Srećom, dopušta mi da je mužem, tako da mali može dobiti potrebnu hranjivu količinu.
Ovo je priča o životu koji uvijek nađe svoj put…
