Indian pangolin receives treatment after dog attack in Sri Lanka
An Indian pangolin that had been injured in a dog attack was treated in Sri Lanka's North Central Province.
The incident took place on October 5 in Anuradhapura.
The video shows the scaly animal inside a cage coiled up in a ball.
Forest department officials can be seen spritzing a healing spray onto its wounds under its tail.
The wild animal unwittingly strayed into a house in a residential area when it was attacked by a dog.
The forest team tending to the animal later shifted the animal to a wildlife hospital for further treatment.
