ZGAP Vet Advice is an offer provided by ZGAP working group „Wildlife Health“. It addresses NGOs
conducting conservation projects.
We believe that veterinary medicine can make an important contribution to species conservation, as
in terms of highly threatened taxa, every sick or dead animal can mean a harsh setback to
conservation efforts.
If conservation projects experience medical issues or diseases in their animals, they have the
opportunity to approach ZGAP to get free advice that is based on the assessment of veterinarians
experienced in exotic animal medicine. These veterinarians will support our offer thanks to a
cooperation agreement between ZGAP and the German Association of Zoo Veterinarians VZT
(Verband der Zootierärzte).
