Only 5 more days until Vet Tech students will go Down Under on May 11. During their 15-day-long travel students will participate in a clinical service program during which they get to work with local veterinarians.  They will visit  research and rescue facilities for marine animals. Lead faculty Tricia Gorham says her and her students are

“excited to work with a volunteer group to help with the rehabilitation of the sea turtle population on the Great Barrier Reef .”

But this is not the only activity that students can look forward to. In collaboration with other nonprofit organizations, students will be able to work with koalas, tree kangaroos and other local animals. The only challenge that students may face is: packing for a trip around world!
