Wildlife Disease Surveillance with Brian Stevens from CWHC
This episode we chat with Brian Stevens who is the pathologist for the Canadian Wildlife Health Cooperative (CWHC). CWCH is the agency responsible for wildlife disease surveillance in our country. This podcast could have been several hours long as I had many more questions to ask, but for now I think we created and interesting and informative episode. We addressed a variety of wildlife diseases (some newly emerging and some more established ones). We also talked about some unusual things such as kidney worms and how to necropsy a sea-slug. If you need to contact CWHC or to peruse the awesome resources on their website please visit: https://www.cwhc-rcsf.ca/ We love your feedback and suggestions.
