A one-year-old lion cub named Zamba underwent a Magnetic Resonance Imaging MRI scan on Monday, at Garden Route Radiology, located within Mediclinic George.
This event marks a significant advancement in veterinary medicine and animal welfare, spotlighting the importance of modern technology in the diagnosis and treatment of wildlife.
Zamba is one of five spirited male cubs residing at the Outeniqua Game Farm in Ruiterbos, nestled in the picturesque Outeniqua Mountains.
Despite his playful nature, the young cub has faced challenges following a fall from a tree earlier this year.
His owners noticed concerning signs of an imbalance which prompted a thorough examination of his condition.
