A calf who lost its back legs to frostbite has received prosthetic legs, thanks to its owner.
Hero the calf arrived back home in Virginia after getting two prosthetic legs from Texas A&M's veterinary school, who performed the surgery and created their first large animal prosthetics.
"Hero is defying all odds. Everyone said he would never make it this far and I'm the only one who said he will and I'm pretty proud of him," said owner Kitty Martin.
Born, like other comic book characters, out of an otherwise trivial but life-changing animal bite, the Rabid Librarian seeks out strange, useless facts, raves about real and perceived injustices, and seeks to meet her greatest challenge of all--her own life.
