Essential veterinary education in zoological and wildlife medicine: a global perspective
The current veterinary curriculum leaves graduates ill-equipped for careers in the field of zoological and wildlife medicine. Further postgraduate training is required to be an effective zoo or wildlife veterinarian. However, whether or not students choose to specialize in this field at a later date, the veterinary curriculum should cover several issues that are related to wildlife and zoo animals, including conservation biology, zoology, behavior, physiology and conservation medicine.
Essential veterinary education in conservation medicine and ecosystem health: a global perspective
Conservation medicine is an emerging discipline that links human and animal health with ecosystem health and global environmental change. By including conservation medicine and ecosystem health into veterinary curricula worldwide we can train young veterinarians that will help change paradigms and be able to form trans-disciplinary teams. These veterinary professionals will develop new tools for assessing and monitoring ecological health and will be prepared to fulfill critical roles in sustaining global ecological health.
