Tongue Swelling Sufficiently 3 Kg, Bear Origin Myanmar Operated

A bear in Myanmar was forced to be taken to an emergency unit to undergo tongue lift surgery. The animal's sense of taste is considered unusual because it looks swollen and weighs up to three kilograms. Quoted from The Guardian page, Tuesday (24/10/2017), a team of doctors in the local area called this incident so rare. The reason is, the tongue of the bear stretches to touch the ground. "For more than 10 years I've never dealt with this," said Heather Bacon, a veterinarian from Edinburgh University. "It just makes me wonder," he added. This type of animal belongs to the category of Asian Black Bear or commonly known as the Moon Bear or White Chest Bracelet - because there are white fur in the chest of the bear. This animal is safe thanks to the help of a Buddhist monk. At that time, they saw a bunch of Myanmar drug traders who wanted to sell the bear to China. One of the reasons they sold the bear, because the demand for bear bile in China is so high. That said, animal bile is often used for traditional medicine. Nevertheless, Buddhist monks managed to thwart such efforts. Seeing the condition of concern, the monks immediately contact the local veterinarian who later continued by Heather Bacon. Upon hearing the report, along with another team of doctors, Bacon flew straight to the bear rescue center in a Myanmar countryside - four hours from downtown Yangon. Provisional estimates, doctors believe the two-year-old bears were infected by parasites. Therefore, the team of doctors immediately take action to perform surgical removal of the tongue. "Before the operation, we had discussions with each other, until finally an operation was done to provide a normal life for the bear," said Bacon. From the doctor's watch, the bear was as tortured. Because, he had to hold the burden of the tongue to reach three kilograms that is not normal. This news is from line today
