UNL Students Make Prototype Cat Prosthetic Leg

UNL students have made a prototype prosthetic leg for cats.

Students — Harrison Grasso, Abby Smith, Jaden Schovanec, Alexandra Jensen and Rachael Stanek— have designed the prosthetic. Led by their instructor Deepak Keshwani.

The crew used a 3-D printer in the Nebraska Design Studio to create a prosthetic leg prototype for a cat, named Olive.
