Global Vet Interviews
As Veterinary Professionals, we are lucky that our skills are needed all over the world!
But you might be surprised by how many differences there are within our global profession.
For example, have you ever wondered…
– How buddhist vets in Sri Lanka really feel about animal euthenasia?
– Why dogs in Ecuador rarely get castrated?
– How Icelandic vets treat horses, when are considered both a companion animal and a delicacy?
The Global Vet Interview series uncovers the diverse and fascinating challenges faced by vets in unique destinations. For those adventurous souls looking to work in these locations, these interviews will also provide you with some insight into what to expect, and how to start your working journey.
