I've done a bit of reading on vets and the animals they care for, but this is the first time I've read about zoo vets. The Rhino with Glue-on Shoes and Other Surprising True Stories of Zoo Vets and Their Patients, edited by Lucy H. Spelmen and Ted Y. Mashima was a great read! Each chapter deals with one 'patient' and is written by the attending vet. There is a wide range here, from the size of the animal (including a goldfish) to the problem it is having. Add to this many of these animals were not in a cage but roaming free so how do you even find them, let along diagnose and treat them? All in all, a fascinating read.
