Hi Charlie here some animals live very tough lives sometimes they experience adversities that should
end their lives but miraculously and against all odds they survive from animals who were
neglected by humans two creatures who sustained injuries out in the wild here are some animals
who survived the impossible lion snare snares are traps set by hunters and poachers they're
basically metal wire that the animal gets caught in this is a very common practice in many african
countries with poachers but it occurs nowhere more than in tanzania one lion in tanzania's
mukimi national park got caught in a snare this happened in 2009 under normal circumstances the
lion would not have survived but miraculously this snare stayed on the line for three years
despite the snare around its neck the lion kept growing but this menthy snare was continuously
choking the lion's neck for three years national park rangers were aware of this lion's situation
they tried to rescue it three times but failed every time that's because of the very tough
terrain and the lion running away from the park rangers assuming they were poachers but finally
in 2012 a fourth rescue operation was launched the rangers managed to sedate the lion and they
then removed the snare from around its neck the line was very weak and in a lot of pain the snare
meant the line was now too weak to hunt and under normal circumstances this lion would not be alive
it's a miracle it survived but these brave and determined rangers saved this lion's life
now it can go on and live a happy life in the wild daniel the miracle dog sadly when dogs go to the
pound many of them are put down for example every year peter puts down thousands of dogs in 2011 a
beagle named daniel was supposed to meet this very fate he had been found abandoned in alabama but
no one was adopting him at the overcrowded animal shelter so daniel and several other dogs were put
into a stainless steel box the box was then filled with carbon monoxide gas this is to give the dogs
a painless death all of the other dogs in the box passed away but miraculously daniel survived
the shelter staff were stunned and confused they decided it must be a sign and kept daniel alive
it's not exactly known how daniel survived the poisonous gas some speculate daniel may have had
a cold this would have resulted in him taking more shallow breaths and thus breathing in less of the
carbon monoxide but either way it's amazing daniel survived what thousands of other dogs don't every
single year daniel was named after the biblical figure who survived the lion's den six-legged deer
one day in georgia a deer was discovered after being attacked by two dogs the person who came
to the deer's rescue was amazed to see it had two extra legs the deer has two pelvises and uses one
leg from each to walk the deer also had two tails but one had to be amputated because of the dogs
injuring it it does struggle to walk but amazingly this deer can survive with six legs of course
the deer could have been injured in the wild so instead it was taken to the dear sanctuary at the
university of georgia there it will make a full recovery from the injuries sustained from the dogs
plastic turtle it's no secret that a massive issue right now is plastic in the seas
there is now 5.5 trillion pieces of macro and micro plastic in our ocean and every day this
increases by 8 million pieces one of the animals this affects the most are turtles and no turtle
represents this better than may west when mae west was a baby she walked into a milk jug ring
the ring got stuck on her waist and this meant her body and shell had to grow around it this gave mae
west an unusual hourglass shape may west is just one example of turtles being severely damaged by
plastic waste mae west was found by a young boy in louisiana thankfully his family took it in and
cared for the turtle and it's amazing mae west survived at all in many cases turtles caught in
plastic simply pass away especially if it gets around their neck and means they can't breathe
mae west is an exception but most turtles are not so lucky it just goes to show how we really have
to fix the issue of plastics in our oceans one thing you can do is cut your milk carton rings
but of course plastic pollution in the ocean is a much wider problem that we all have to address

does help me out two-legged cow we've already seen a deer that had more legs than it needed
but on the contrary this baby cow was born with no front legs in most situations cows may not be
able to lift their head up to drink or eat it will also not be able to move and would likely
pass away very quickly but amazingly this baby cow learned to walk on two legs just like a human the
cow was found in indonesia and it can amazingly walk around on its hind legs it's amazing
what animals can overcome if they have to most cows in this situation would not have survived
but this indonesian bovine went against all odds and survived the impossible broken neck giraffe
giraffes are famous for their long necks they need them because all of the food they eat is very high
up in tall trees but what happens when a giraffe breaks its most important body part its neck well
that actually happened to one giraffe in botswana this male giraffe is around 15 years old its neck
is thought to be broken and as a result it's very crooked normally male giraffes don't have hair on
their horns that's because they fight and the hair comes off but clearly this male giraffe
has avoided fighting that's because it has lots of hair on its horns the giraffe may have broken its
neck fighting at a very young age this can happen when male giraffes fight over female giraffes
kind of like what us human males sometimes also do but despite the giraffe's neck being crooked
it survived against all odds it must have really thrown off its coordination that's because its
eyesight is offset to the left but miraculously this giraffe can still move around eat and drink
totally normally siamese turtle we've all heard of siamese twins that is when two babies are born
as one person it's basically two separate people connected but have you ever seen a siamese turtle
most of the time when a turtle is born with two heads it does not survive but that is not the case
with this two-headed turtle found in china the turtle was found in 2017 in the shangshi province
the turtle has two brains and two minds of its own but they're somehow able to coordinate they
can move around wherever they want to go and the heads both eat and drink separately the right head
controls the right front flipper while the left head controls the left front flipper it's pretty
amazing this turtle can not only survive but thrive the turtle or turtles are able to perfectly
coordinate their movements hopefully this turtle goes on to live a very happy and healthy life
but now it's time for you to make your voice heard leave a comment down below telling me
