Have you ever wondered how veterinarians handle emergency situations? Have you thought about how to prepare for your own animal's emergency medical needs? In this course we will cover common health issues large animal veterinarians might see and run through some sample cases. By the end of the class, you will also have the information needed to recognize several production animal illnesses. We will cover questions such as: - What are some signs a cow is experiencing a medical emergency? - What are some health conditions commonly seen by large animal emergency veterinarians? - What supplies should I have on hand, in case of emergency? - What are some things I can do to reduce the chances of my animal needing emergency care? Finally, although I am a licensed veterinarian and love the subject, I will not be able to answer health questions regarding learners' personal animals. If your animal is experiencing a medical issue, please have the animal seen by your local veterinarian.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
We will discuss real life medical conditions that affect production animals (animals often used to produce milk, meat, or fiber). Images may include injured animals, surgery, or other medical-related content that may be disturbing to sensitive learners. While I do not consider the content especially graphic, if this type of material is not a good fit for your learner, it would be best not to enroll in the class.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
