Product Description
The recognition of the importance of safe large animal rescue is quickly growing. The prevailing attitude of large animal owners, whose animals are often pets or a large financial investment, is to demand the safe rescue and treatment of their large animals in emergency situations. Technical Large Animal Emergency Rescue is a guide for equine, large animal, and mixed animal veterinarians, zoo and wildlife veterinarians, vet techs, and emergency responders on how to rescue and treat large animals in critical situations while maintaining the safety of both the animal and the rescuer. This book is a must have reference for any individual who deals with large animals in emergency situations.

Long awaited resource! November 25, 2008
This resource is comprehensive it its treatment of just about all large animal response needs. I was even surprised to see a section covering decontamination in the text. While rare outside of rural areas, large animal rescue training is as an often ignored subject with most fire departments and animal control agencies which focus on dealing with small domestic animals. This resource is an excellent tool to refresh the very perishable skill of large animal rescue. The only thing that would add to the book would be a step by step illustration of the application of the various manipulation, lift, and rescue techniques; specifically how to apply the webbing to the animal.
