Camel Saved By Texas A&M Veterinary Team

When Sybil the camel arrived at Texas A&M University’s Large Animal Hospital (LAH), with a serious hip injury, few believed that a successful surgery would be possible. But thanks to the skill of her surgical team, Sybil has become one of the first camels to fully recover from a dislocated hip.

Although doctors at Texas A&M’s College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences treat mostly horses and farm animals, other species are also seen surprisingly often, including a large number of camels that live as pets on Texas ranches.
