Posted: Sat May 21, 2005 5:30 pm
A badly injured seagull was saved after sailors amputated its wounded leg and replaced it with Barbie doll parts. The bird was found in Greese by a yacht crew who diagnosed gangrene. Inspired by peg-leg pirates, they amputated the leg,replacing it with the leg of a Barbie doll and a dollhand as a foot. The seagull, who they've named Martha, is now running around the boat on a the new leg.
