CSU Professor George Wittemyer Working to Save Elephants From Poachers

New research led by Colorado State University has revealed that an estimated 100,000 elephants in Africa were killed for their ivory between 2010 and 2012 - driving a population decline of the world's wild African elephants on the order of 2 percent to 3 percent a year. CSU Professor George Wittemyer is the lead author of the study and has been working with Save the Elephants and Kenya Wildlife Services to document every elephant birth and death over the past 16 years in Samburu, Kenya.

Dog Examination Techniques at the University of Nottingham

This video introduces students to the basic techniques used in the physical examination of dogs. The video discusses safety precautions, common examination equipment, and the proper methods of dog restraint. Demonstrations are given in observation techniques, palpitation methods, and stethoscope use.

A significant element of the first two years of the veterinary course is anatomy and physiology, and a framework for carrying out a physical examination is introduced early in the course at Nottingham since physical examination is essentially applied anatomy and physiology.

The first lecture also includes a four-page introduction and overview of the course content and aims. Slides from some class sessions, such as those discussing shelter issues, farm animals, and research alternatives, are provided in downloadable PDF format.

Law and Veterinary Medicine at Tufts University
