Elephant Veterinary Conservation Mission

The course is designed and delivered by an international network of elephant veterinarians, reproductive physiologists, behaviour and welfare scientists, and conservation experts, supported by experienced regional veterinary staff. Together, they bring specialist expertise in elephant health, reproduction, endocrinology, behaviour, and applied conservation medicine.
