Paralyzed Calf Gets a Wheelchair and Runs for the Very First Time

An adorable video shows a paralyzed calf enjoying her new life in a custom-made wheelchair! The calf is given a new lease on life by rescuers who created the first cow wheelchair in the world.

Their state-of-the-art creation allowed the calf to run gleefully through the surrounding fields for the first time. Watching her joyous ride in the new aid will make you feel happy for the baby calf!

The calf, Staci, was born with an incurable defect named spina bifida. Due to the underdevelopment of her spine, six-month-old Staci was facing the imminent loss of her hind legs and was unable to walk.

The Freedom Farm Sanctuary’s volunteers were right there to provide 24-hour care for Staci! Seeing her paralyzed life, this intelligent rescue team from Israel stepped in to save her life, even developing a special wheelchair to support their paralyzed calf.

Taking inspiration from disabled dogs being assisted with special wheelchairs, the team set about creating one for Staci. Freedom Farm Sanctuary made the first walking assistance apparatus for Staci, and it’s the first time calves are getting such a facility!

“The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not covet,” and whatever other command there may be, are summed up in this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.”
