A variety of service animals, including 10 miniature horses, recently visited @msuvets for free eye exams. The annual event helps identify developing eye conditions before they become more serious concerns and provides hands-on learning opportunities for students.

A discovery from @msuvets researcher James Luyendyk is challenging a long-held belief about how the liver repairs itself after surgery.

Without access to spay and neuter surgeries required before adoption, animals often remain in shelters longer. To help address this problem, @MSUvets launched a new mobile veterinary surgical unit that brings care directly to shelters and welfare organizations across the state.

Did you know miniature horses can be seeing-eye animals? This month, ten of them visited the MSU VMC for free eye exams through the ACVO®/Epicur® Service Animal Eye Screening Event — one of 8,000+ exams given each year. We're proud to be part of it!

Our North American river otter Miles recently received some world class dental care. At 13 years old, Miles is in his senior years for a river otter and he has started to shown signs of arthritis in right knee. The zoo veterinary and animal care team works closely together to monitor his comfort and health as he ages. In particular, Miles had a tough winter due to his right arthritic knee. Veterinary staff elected to take Miles for a whole body CT scan to characterize the severity of his osteoarthritis in his knee and at this procedure, Miles was found to have an infected canine tooth. With the help of Dr. Turner from Veterinary Dental Referral Services, who assisted on the case, the veterinary team worked together to remove the tooth. As part of Miles’ procedure, Dr. Valerie Johnson from MSU CVM administered otter stem cells to help treat his arthritic right knee. This procedure also highlights the impact of our new Delta Dental of Michigan Animal Treatment Room, which allows our veterinary team to provide advanced care for animals like Miles right here at the zoo. A huge thank you to Delta Dental of Michigan for supporting animal health at Potter Park Zoo, and to Dr. Turner from Veterinary Dental Referral Services for donating her time and expertise to help care for Miles. Miles is recovering well, and our team will continue to keep a close eye on him as he heals. 🦦
