They drop them onto rocks to break them open.Four Paws is an animal welfare organization. In Austria, it received a young bearded vulture. The bird had a bad lower leg and foot.The vulture’s parents put sheep’s wool in their nest. A thread wrapped around the young bird’s leg. It stopped blood going to its foot.To save the vulture, animal doctors cut off its lower leg. They spoke with surgeons who make false arms and legs for humans.The surgeons made a round rubber foot for the vulture. They fixed it into the bird’s leg bone.The young vulture is the first bionic bird. After three weeks, it could stand in trees. The bionic bird can also land and take off.
