As per the post, the man had witnessed someone stepping on the poor insect on the roadside and instead of leaving it there to die; he brought it to avail medical care at Sai Rak Animal Hospital.

Dr. Limpapattanawanich then placed the insect in an oxygenated container to increase its chances of survival.
