The well-being of (non-human) animals
POPULARITY
The Trump administration's federal cuts have put billions of dollars for scientific research and thousands of research jobs at risk. They could also be imperiling laboratory animals. Scientists around the country are concerned that funding cuts could mean prematurely ending research involving mice, dogs, nonhuman primates, and more. Like many others, the University of Washington is a research institution that relies on animal subjects for its studies. If these studies are unable to continue, scientists will have to consider euthanizing these animals. That could mean setbacks to all sorts of health-related experiments, including ones related to cancer and Alzheimer’s.

Students in the Veterinary Science program at Hilhi recently launched an innovative grooming lab in a school-based enterprise model as part of their new Animal Care lab course. Designed to emulate a professional pet salon, the lab allows students to apply their classroom knowledge in a practical, hands-on environment, moving from theory to real-world implementation. It opened with a soft-launch this fall, in which school staff were invited to bring in their family pets for grooming. This allowed students to experience what it's like to interact with actual clients and manage the needs of animals in a grooming setting. This unique opportunity not only enhances students' technical skills in animal care and grooming, but also introduces them to the operational aspects of running an animal service business. Through this course, Hilhi is empowering students with industry-relevant skills and positioning them for success in veterinary science and related fields. The Vet Science program at Hilhi is offered on the CCP Shuttle and is open to students across the district.

Discover the truth behind the myths and misconceptions about wolves with our special guest, Regina Mossotti, Vice President of Animal Care at the Saint Louis Zoo. Regina brings her wealth of experience to our conversation, sharing insider stories from her work with red wolf and Mexican grey wolf recovery programs. She unveils the shy, curious nature of wolves, challenging the cultural fear fueled by their negative portrayal in popular media. Prepare to shift your perspective as we explore how these misunderstood creatures prefer to avoid human contact and play a vital role in maintaining balanced ecosystems.Wolves can have a transformative impact on their surroundings, as exemplified by the reintroduction of gray wolves in Yellowstone National Park. We navigate the historical journey of wolf conservation, from the near eradication of wolves in the late 1800s and early 1900s to contemporary efforts focused on carnivore conservation across North America. Regina's insights emphasize the critical role wolves play in sustaining healthy animal and plant populations, highlighting the often-overlooked significance of these majestic creatures in preserving biodiversity within the United States.Collaboration and innovation take center stage as we uncover initiatives that foster coexistence between humans and wolves. From the "Prey for the Pack" program in North Carolina to the revival of livestock guardian dogs, we explore creative strategies that transform community perceptions and encourage local support for wildlife conservation. Regina shares inspiring stories of collaboration among diverse stakeholders, illustrating the power of dialogue and cooperation in achieving conservation goals.

Today David and Josh dive into one more study on "the 5 domains", a model used to asses overall animal welfare.
Besides tending to the needs of those that have been impacted by the affects of Hurricane Helene, there's also an ongoing effort to care for livestock and pets. That's part of the reason the University of Tennessee College of Veterinarian Medicine has deployed its mobile small animal care unit along with a large animal ambulatory truck to the area.
Despite cell phone signals doing their best to keep us apart, Chris AND Ari are joined for the return of Greg Peccie, Riverbanks Zoo and Garden's Director of Animal Care and Welfare! Greg returns to the show to help us dig deeper into the many angles of professional development: developing a shared language for what those two words mean, how "quiet quitting" fits into an industry that requires constant diligence and effort from its employees, why newer keepers might be better served to aim for batting singles instead of homeruns, how being a change-maker and being miserable are both choices a person can make, and why leaders might want to see how a racehorse performs before they put money on it.

A move to address years of dysfunction with Indianapolis's Animal Care Services is part of the 2025 Indianapolis budget plans. Indiana is one of the states that has benefited the most from clean energy projects spurred by the Inflation Reduction Act – that's according to the green business advocacy group E-2. Indiana Chief Justice Loretta Rush was chosen Wednesday to serve another five years as leader of the state Supreme Court. With climate change on the top of mind for many Indianapolis residents, the city is working to increase its sustainability effort, but it continues to fall behind — but in one area, clean transit, it persistently struggles.

In a world of Amazon and Uber-level convenience, where digital disruptors are changing the way the world interacts and how we do business, why do we think that the vet profession won't be impacted? "We're facing a lot of disruption. There is this class of digital disruptive dis-intermediators that are emerging and trying to displace the position of the veterinary clinic. Many of them explicitly have the mission to become the most trusted, most convenient touch point in the pet care journey." Dr Thom Jenkins is the co-founder & CEO of PetsApp, a client engagement platform the streamlines client interactions, and in this episode he'll show you why the veterinary profession is, and should remain, at the heart of animal care, why disruptors think they can compete for the role of ‘most trusted', and how they'll do it. You'll hear how practices are integrating telemedicine and online services with the physical touch points of traditional bricks and mortar clinics, how we're our own worst enemies when we overpromise and underdeliver, and how a tech-savvy vet sees the role of AI in the future of veterinary science. Thom also tells us about his experiences of working as a vet in China. Please give us your feedback on how to make the podcast better by answering 12 questions here.

Coping and healing are hard, but essential. www.patreon.com/aquatizoo l.semple@magicalvacationplanner.com www.magicalvacationplanner.com/staff/lori-semple
