Six-year-old boy has penis bitten off by pet horse as he plays on his bike
The doctor who treated the injured six-year-old boy described it as an "extraordinary situation"
A six-year-old boy has had his penis bitten off by a pet horse in an "extraordinary" attack.
The incident happened when the boy rode past the mare on his bike.
Reports claim the horse suddenly attacked him, knocked him to the ground and chewed off his member.
The child wailed from the horrendous pain and ran back to his shocked dad.
The father called an ambulance and then luckily found the severed.
The bizarre incident occurred in the Zhytomyr Oblast region of northern Ukraine.
The mare is a family pet and pictures show the animal and child together.
The stunned father said: "I was dealing with the horses when I heard my boy screaming, 'she bit it off, she bit it off!'
"I put my hands onto his crotch to stop the bleeding and called emergency services."
The boy was rushed to the nearest regional hospital for emergency surgery.
Doctor Igor Vishpinsky said: "We have had difficult cases in the last few years but we never experienced something like this.
"Maybe a severed finger or something like that from a horse bite, but definitely nothing like this. It was an extraordinary situation."
The surgeons managed to stitch the boy’s penis back onto his body.
It is understood that it will take time to see if the operation has been successful.
