Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injuries are one of the most common orthopedic injuries veterinarians see in dogs. The ligament is also known as the Cranial Cruciate Ligament (CCL) in animals.It connects the bone above the knee (the femur) with the bone below the knee (the tibia).early all dogs with tearing or damage to their cruciate ligament will have swelling that is felt on the front part of their knee. Symptoms may include: 1  Lameness or weakness in one or both hind legs. 2  Limping or reluctance to use one or both hind legs. 3  Limping worsens with exercise and improves with rest.

The Lifespan of a Chicken. Believe it or not, chickens have quite an impressive lifespan! The maximum age of a chicken is around 25 years. It's very rare for a chicken to live that long, however, because they are so vulnerable to predators and disease. Due to their vulnerability, the average age of a backyard chicken is only about 3 or 4 years, although I feel that with special protection and care it would not be unreasonable to expect 7 or 8 years. My oldest hen is a New Hampshire red/blue bantam cochin mix named Sarah. She is 11 years old and still laying.
