Giving Jabu the elephant IV in ear vien | Living With Elephants | Botswana

Living With Elephants: Today we gave Jabu his third injection of Pentosan, a cartilage repairing drug, used with great success in race horses. Many of you will remember that Jabu had a bad reaction to the first injection. Last week we had our local vet come help and show us how to give the IV cortisone to dampen any negative reactions. Today Doug and I successfully administered the cortisone ourselves. Of course we were a little anxious but we always have full faith in Jabu to walk us though what needs to be done. His trust in our ability to help him is a huge responsibility. We are hoping that these shots will ease Jabu's osteoarthritis and he will start feeling more comfortable soon.
