Very true humans overestimate for sure and I think its because their emotions overpower their brain. But many things can be done, we can just look to Sheldrick Wildlife Vets (which I donate to when I can) in Kenya. They treat lions, leopards, cheetahs, etc... and do surgery in the field for sure. Unfortunately something like a broken leg is a death sentence because they 100% cannot take a wild lion into a cage for rehabilitation. 

Maybe Sassy developed some sort of dementia or something possibly? That was a horrible and sad situation.

Definitely my friend @BigLion39 that Sassy developed a sort of mental issue due to the stress she was living and didn't experience before, animals are not robots. 
I'd love we could understand more those behaviors that we only attribute to humans. Reply
