"The tortoises was bitten by a mongoose from the forest nearby last week. It suffered grave injuries on its leg," zoo director K.S.S.V.P. Reddy was quoted as saying.
The veterinarians used a special resin to attach two lightweight wheels designed for use on sliding windows to the 2-year-old tortoise's shell.
The park said the tortoise is now able to reach her food faster than the other tortoises in her enclosure.
