Animal Welfare Information Center, which covers topics like "ruminant anesthesia
problems." Pet owners who just want to know how much to feed a two headed calf
will have more trouble. Finding Anything can be hard here, since the links are
piled up behind complex categories like Informatics and Virtual Library. Still,
veterinarian Dr. Ken Boschert deserves a scratch behind the ears for his hard
work in compiling this site. Good boy! |
