Painted Dog Conservation in the Field
15th Jun 2010
WVI vet and trustee, Brig. Tom Ogilvie-Graham's has submitted his report on his spring visit to Painted Dog Conservation, Zimbabwe. He took part in vital field surgery on a Painted Dog pack leader, as well as providing much needed supplies to the Painted Dog Conservation clinic. The other aim of Tom's visit was to vaccinate domestic dogs in surrounding villages against distemper, in order to protect Painted Dogs and other wildlife that might be affected. The vaccination clinics were a great success. Find out the full details read the report.
