Rehabilitation and Physical Therapy
Rehabilitation and physical therapy is a well-known and accepted practice in human medicine. Veterinary rehabilitation utilizes the same physical therapy techniques as those used for humans. The purpose of rehabilitation is to return the body to normal function as quickly as possible following disease, injury or surgery, and to relieve acute or chronic pain.
The benefits of physical therapy are pain relief, early restoration of the neuromuscular system, reduction and prevention of muscle atrophy, improved muscle strength and flexibility, improvement in joint biomechanics, stimulation of blood circulation, improved cardiovascular function and weight reduction.
We will discuss the individualized therapies for treating your pet's medical condition. These therapies can be offered to your pets enabling them to have longer and happier lives.

Lions And Tigers
Northern Tuli Predator Project
This is the project we were working on. Running for over five years, the Northern Tuli Predator Project focuses mainly on the study of lions and leopards, but other large carnivores such as the spotted hyaena are also incorporated. The goal is to tag with GPS collars, adult male lions and leopards, to map out their territories and to manage/prevent their straying onto neighboring countries land and thus be poached/hunted, or shot by farmers if the lions try to take cattle part of the project is to show how the tourist money supports the country so the animals are valuable and not pests Andrei Snyman is the PhD candidate/researcher on the project July 2010 a group of 3 veterinarians traveled to Botswana to assist him in the tracking and tagging.
As the Tuli lions are severely threatened we urgently need to raise funds to study the effects of human disturbances of this population and to raise conservation awareness for them.
Aims of the project:
• Determine lion numbers and population structures of the Northern
Tuli Game Reserve
• Compare current population status with that of historical records
• Determine lion movements - especially male lions via GPS-radio
collars
• Identify factors influencing the lion population
