Pedro, the turtle, was given a wheelchair by the vets after he lost his back legs.

It wasn’t sure if he’ll be able to walk again, but the vets gave him a lego car set’s wheels so that he can walk.

When the turtle was adopted, he already didn’t have his one leg and once he escaped his house and when he returned his other leg was also lost.

The owners of the turtle brought him to the Louisiana State University’s Veterinary Teaching Hospital to figure out if he’ll be able to walk again or not.

There was nothing wrong with the turtle as the only drawback was he didn’t have his back legs. After a lot of thinking, the vets decided to create a walking device for the turtle using the lego car kit set.

The zoological intern picked up the lego kit and took out the useful parts like wheels, and all. They quickly made very amazing back wheels for the turtle using the car kit.

The turtle was looking so cute with his, which was attached behind as his back legs. It feels like vets are really creative while doing their jobs as once they also created a mini fountain to keep a fish alive while performing endoscopy.

Pedro has definitely become faster than before with those cool wheels on his back.
