Follow-Up on Necropsy Lab

A bit late, yes!  In November, we were pleased to hold a wildlife necropsy wet lab, and the CWHC (Canadian Wildlife Health Cooperative) published a blog post about the experience (with some great photos!): http://blog.healthywildlife.ca/university-of-saskatchewan-students-do-wildlife-necropsies/

Feel free to give it a read-through…and think about joining us when we hold our next necropsy lab!
