WILDLIFE VETS, A RISKY JOB

Zoo heroes

Synopsis

Vets specializing in wildlife are only a few.

They primarily work in zoos, where they can attend to the rarest and sometimes most dangerous species. Their experience enables them to treat felines, reptiles, marine mammals, and even the most giant herbivores on the African savannah.

For several months, we followed them from France to Costa Rica. We witnessed the most delicate operations and shared their daily lives, which are full of emotion and moments of intense stress.
