This discipline includes quarantine, parasite management, respiratory infections, mouth rot, wounds, burns, dehydration, stuck sheds, reproductive complications, emergency response, medication basics, diagnostic testing, necropsy, and long-term health records. The goal is not to replace veterinarians, but to help keepers become better observers, better recordkeepers, and better partners in animal care.
