Lucky is a turtle living in Petaluma, California. On July 31st, Lucky was attacked by what his owner Sally Pyne believes was a raccoon. A veterinarian amputated what was left of Lucky’s front legs. But Lucky can walk again, since the vet put stacked plastic chair sliders under the front of his shell, allowing his back legs to push him along without catching his shell against the ground.
