Thanks to Ikhala Veterinary Clinic for the video of a young male lion receiving care from our Dr Emily and our students🦁

“He was darted for a few important reasons - top of the list being a stubborn case of mange that needed a follow-up treatment to finally clear it up.

While he was under anaesthesia, the team also replaced his tracking collar and gave our students a rare, hands-on experience working up close with a big cat - something they won’t forget anytime soon!”
