Lion Zuberi sees the dentist

Описание: Melbourne Zoo’s eight-year-old lion Zuberi fractured a “big fang tooth” or a canine in the lower left side of his mouth. Keepers noticed the damage and quickly summoned Dr. David Clarke, a Specialist Veterinary Dentist.
Dr. Clarke performed the pulp capping procedure in about 30 minutes and Zuberi recovered well and was feeding normally the next day.
