The Horse with Nine Lives

In this video from the PBS series NATURE, Kaye Harris shares the inspirational story of her horse Molly. Molly survived Hurricane Katrina only to have her leg severely injured in a dog attack. Louisiana State University's Veterinary Hospital performed their first equine amputation on the horse and with the help of a prosthetic leg Molly is able to live a happy and healthy life.
