After suffering a tibia fracture, Jumbo had to be urgently transported to the Zurich animal hospital. The large animal rescue service CH/FL applied a transport cast to the injured leg, and then the journey continued in the ambulance, securely fastened by the recovery net, to the animal hospital, where Jumbo received the necessary veterinary care.
While most horse emergencies are covered by insurance or the private financing of their owners, the costs associated with rescuing so-called farm animals often pose financial challenges for the affected farmers. To ensure these important operations, the SUST, together with the GTRD, is conducting the "Farm animals also deserve professional rescue" campaign and has been funding the uncovered costs for the rescue of so-called "farm animals" for years.
Thank you for also advocating for farm animals in need:
