Poor thing. It would have suffered a lot, as the injury is in the head and it wont be able to lick it and keep it clean. I like the low angle and composition. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Lovely eye contact. The licking tongue makes the image more interesting. The details are nice. Thanks for sharing.
