Answer:
Find a way to support and immobilize the injured limb until the calf can be treated by a veterinarian. Determine the location of the fracture, and if possible stabilize it with a padded bandage or splint. Don't just throw the calf in the back of a pickup and take it to the vet without protecting the leg.
veterinarian can provide surgical repair, thermal cautery and packing when needed for a bleeding emergency. There are a few things you can do to reduce blood loss until help arrives. An arterial bleed that involves bright red pumping, squirting or non-stop stream of blood needs immediate attention. At the site of any bleeding injury apply firm pressure using gauze or something made of fabric. Materials with texture will facilitate clotting by providing a little lattice to build on. Keep the first layer of material that you apply firmly in place as the blood begins to form a soft clot. DO NOT REMOVE THE FIRST LAYER. Leaving the first layer in place allows the network of clotting ample time to build and take hold. If your first layer becomes soaked with blood, you can add another layer of absorbent material on top of your original layer. Pulling the first layer off will start the clotting system all over again, losing any ground you may have made. If direct pressure isn’t enough, look for a way to slow or stop the blood from getting to the site by either applying a tourniquet or applying immediate pressure to the artery or vein supplying the injured area. Limb bandaging, and ice packs can be added as well to constrict the blood vessels and decrease the bleed.
