April 2021. An in-depth look at elephant foot abscess trim.

‪@elephantcareunchained‬
The amazing Sambo dealing with daily lifelong care. In this video you can see how the pressure builds up inside the foot and kills the nail. The pressure needs to be reduced and the nail removed.

With everything we have done to elephants it’s good to see one getting a pedicure to feel better.

[@LionHeart_.]

This goes to show that even the smallest of pain does not care how big you are, you will feel it.

[@michaelofcvan6579]

Elephants are my favorite animal.

Petunia's getting a mani - pedi.

[@mcpuffenstuff6213]

Any follow up on how the healing process is going?

[@elephantcareunchained]

Unfortunately, she'll require lifelong daily care. The damage was already done from walking the streets for 20 plus years. She lives an amazing life now

[@shannonmyers3890]

Very glad you’re trying to improve her feet. But that’s a very big stick being used on the elephant to get her to comply. Extremely disturbing.

[@elephantcareunchained]

There is no stick

Que lindo ele dá a patinha

Would it work if the people that had these elephant gave them pedicures more often and changed a few things. Would this stop the problem with their toenails.

[@elephantcareunchained]

Pretty much all of the foot problems that elephants get are from being in an improper environment. You have to fix the environment first.

[@kimlee1416]

@@elephantcareunchainedso are they able to fix their environment. Many thanks for your work. God bless you.

[@elephantcareunchained]

@@kimlee1416 that's the first thing I try to accomplish. No amount of footwork will help if an elephant is in a poor environment.

[@kimlee1416]

@@elephantcareunchained I understand what you are saying. Thank you for all the work you are doing with the Elephants. God bless you.

[@kerryowen-holmes3719]

Do you have to put any iodine on the wound?

[@elephantcareunchained]

No it's soaked afterwards

[@crazygram9777]

Why is he hitting the elephant?

[@elephantcareunchained]

Swatting flys

[@Robertspb007]

На 6:29 он бьет слона! Как тебя назвать после такого? Надеюсь, он тебе после ответит

[@elephantcareunchained]

Nobody beats the elephant. Not sure what you are talking about

[@Robertspb007]

@@elephantcareunchained I'm sorry, it looks like you're hitting him.
