A drizzly morning but we still got out and gave anti-parasite treatment to a number of dogs in Chintsa East.

We even visited Emma who was fostered by ECAC while getting treatment for a severe umbilical hernia - you would never know she had an issue she looks so happy and healthy today!

Impala Capture

Today our students assisted in the immobilisation of a number of impala.

Not only a chance to get up close and personal to one if Africa’s iconic wildlife species but to put into practice the theory about wildlife capture and immobilisation they’ve been learning about over the past few days

Our Game Capture Course students practicing their dart gun skills.

We not only teach handling, safety and stance in using these tools but also have a number of different styles of dart gun too to show how they can be used differently.

Our students continue to give back to the community even during the weekend by helping at the local Soup Kitchen.

Onwaba was established to help feed the children of Chintsa East township so they all have a full meal each day, no matter the financial situation of their family.
These days, all children under 18 are given breakfast before school and a hardy meal for lunch. They rely on donations so visiting as part of a holiday is a great way to help.

Helping out local communities with anti-parasitic treatments for dogs.

Our students are taught different methods of medicine delivery such as topical, oral and injectable. Our staff, all qualified veterinary professionals, teach the students how to do this properly and safely, supervising each student and patient interaction to maintain welfare and safe for both.

Community outreach with large animals.

Our community outreach isn’t just with dogs, we assist any animals in need. Today students assisted in giving preventative anti-parasitic treatment to a number of pigs and goats at the request of their owners.

Not only does this prevent getting the parasites themselves but also kills any that may be present and helps prevent any diseases they may carry.

Our students were able to help a farm with a sheep that has chronic issues with her feet and ticks.

Initially, ticks were a problem. The bont ticks mouth pieces are designed to cut into the skin of African wildlife like rhinos so they can cause serious issues for soft skinned animals like sheep.

In this case, they have caused severe damage in the area between the toes of the hooves, even to the point of causing abscesses.

Our team cleaned the wounds, and gave further anti-parasitic and wound advice for the owners to continue treatment

Our students took part in a necessary part of cattle farming which is important in managing animals and their health.

Branding cattle may be seen as controversial but in times when we are managing outbreaks of disease such as Foot and Mouth, identifying herds is even more important than ever.

Identifying a herd means if a cow is found roaming, the owner, and farm, can be identified and risk of disease transference immediately known. Within the farm it also means that new cows being introduced can be told apart from the original herd during their quarantine period and and preventative treatment can be given to the herd before they intermingle with the original herd.

Ear tagging offers similar identification but can fall out or be removed so both are often used together

Our programme allows students to see hidden spots on South Africa’s Wild Coast.

Our lunch spot was the Morgan Bay Cliffs where there are views up and down the Wild Coast and the open ocean. Looking out to sea, the next point of land is the west coast of Australia!

Dennis, our commander and chief, making sure he stays comfortable on game capture.

(We managed to catch 1 male impala on this capture who didn’t react well to the immobilisation drugs but was able to be reversed and transported safely)
