SAWorldVets students experienced a bit of rural SA by joining the amazing Hoedspruit animal outreach.HALO volunteers visit communities and pet owners who can bring their dogs, cats and other domestic animals for free medical care. The animals are examined and medicated when needed (worms, ticks, fleas, mange, mango worms and fly strike are common problems in the rural community dogs) or vaccinated . Late afternoon students joined Dr. Boshoff for a darting practical session. On the students last day , we will see who paid attention in class 😉( students will get the opportunity to dart from a R44 helicopter ) .sanchez43 Leo Becker Kennesaw State University Círculo de Pre-Veterinaria Worldwide Veterinary Service - WVS Worldwide Vets

Just a quick update : Students worked on a variety of wildlife in the last two weeks while assisting Dr.Boshoff infield . ….Sables, rhino, wild dogs , hyena , kudu and even spotted lions feeding in the Kruger National Park. Yesterday students moved three Cape buffalo to a boma for future transport. Prior to the move, new ear tags were created, including a custom “2024” tag a made to mark the year. At the same camp, they examined a roan experiencing difficulty walking in her hind end. It was determined that she had recently given birth, and a nerve issue in the pelvic area was suspected.

After a quick stop at the lodge for coffee and a snack, they evaluated an eland deer with a broken right horn, which was subsequently removed. The last call of the day involved a kudu bull that had been observed with his head down. He was found to have severe right otitis with necrotic tissue present.

Students infield with SAWorldVets wildlife veterinarian , Dr Boshoff SA WorldVets
Today students experienced vasectomies on wild dogs , so they don’t reproduce. They couldn’t just castrate them because that would take their testosterone away and ruin the pack dynamic. And the castrated ones would be bullied and possibly killed by the other members.

Tomorrow students will start the day with an early bush walk in a Great Five Reserve !!!!!!

Quick update :SAWORLDVETS students was involved in the ultimate African conservation experience =RHINO DEHORNING ! With no horns present, there is no reason for wildlife criminals to target and kill rhinos, so dehorning is an effective, temporary safeguard against poaching. It causes no pain to the rhino, and the horns will eventually grow back, just like our own hair or fingernails.

With the current poaching crises facing Rhinos, experts recommend dehorning once every 12-24 months. Dr Chris Boshoff from SAWorldVets is at the forefront of this conservation effort and our Students from NC State University were privileged to experience the dehorning of 2 of these African Idols. The Rhinos were immobilised, underwent a full medical evaluation, was microchipped and finally dehorned.
Unfortunately the helicopter alerted us to a poached rhino carcass found infield. This just showed the students the true and sad reality that South African Wildlife faces on a daily basis.
