Animals at the Knoxville Zoo get their beaks trimmed. Dr. Ed Ramsay does the procedure on a tortoise with a Dremel and Edwin, the Knoxville Zoo's raven, gets his beak trimmed with a guillotine-style clipper commonly used for dogs.

    Not being able to eat properly hurts too.

    Having a tumor removed will hurt too.

    All done for the benefit of the individual that may be in pain.

    However, the beak has no bone in it like the Ravens, the tort feels the vibrations, but not pain, unless done poorly and crack the beak...

    I am doing it on a new tort I just got Tuesday, his is way overgrown.

    It is due to being fed cut up and soft foods(mostly), with nothing hard for the beak to scrape on while eating.

  • What the heck. People are getting so stupid. Global Warming with record blizzards in DC. How ironic. The same day these pencil pushing idiots go to copenhagen for the global warming summit DC gets record snow. Then these goofs try to cover up their BS with saying it's because of global warming. That's like me saying I can't pay my bills because I work too much. Now we are down to drilling a turtles freaking beak. Go read Matthew24 where it says a rise in earthquakes will be a sign of Jesusreturn

  • thats sad that would hurt

  • its just like a finger nail

  • ouch! that's got to hart XD
