EDITORS COMMENTS
Ten week old Isaac, a playful leopard cub at Coventry Zoo Park, found comfort in sucking his paw. However, this innocent habit took an unfortunate turn when he ended up dislocating his leg. Concerned for her beloved animal's well-being, Mrs Shelia Chipperfield wasted no time and called the vet for immediate assistance. The skilled veterinarian arrived promptly and skillfully applied a plaster cast to Isaac's injured leg. As the young leopard adjusted to his new accessory, a heartwarming scene unfolded before our eyes. A compassionate young girl approached Isaac with open arms, offering him a sympathetic hug. This touching moment captured on April 20th, 1973 showcases the bond that can develop between humans and animals under unexpected circumstances. The photograph serves as a reminder of the dedication and care provided by zoos like Coventry Zoo Park in ensuring the welfare of their residents. Isaac's misadventure highlights both the vulnerability of baby animals in captivity and the importance of prompt medical attention when accidents occur.
