Dr. Kellam is leading a trip of six students on the Shimongwe
Limpopo Veterinary Experience. They are working with the local wildlife
veterinarians to assist sick and injured wildlife, learn about game capture and
immobilization in the field, assist with translocation of various species,
conduct blood sampling to ensure disease free buffalo breeding populations, and
to learn the safety procedures related to the use of drugs used to sedate large
game animals such as elephants and rhinos. There is lots more information on
the organizations
website or follow them on the African Wildlife Vets
facebook
page.
