Endangered lion treated for ear ache at London Zoo
An endangered lion has been treated for an ear ache by specialist vets at London ZooHis ears were then cleaned out so that medication could reach the infection
Bhanu, an Asiatic lion, required the procedure because he had suffered a series of painful infections in one ear which had not responded to drops. As a result he had to be placed under anaesthetic so his ears could be cleaned out, meaning that medication could therefore reach the source of the infections."We filled his cosy indoor den with soft straw in preparation for the procedure, and thanks to expert training from London Zoo’s zookeepers and veterinary nurses, Bhanu chose to calmly present his leg so we could administer the general anaesthetic," he said.
