Bushfires in Australia

Our Podcast sponsors have pitched in and are doing their bit to help out with the recovery program for the Australian bushfires. We knew they are good people! See below for their contributions:

Microchips Australia and Central Animal Records are donating AU50 cents from every microchip sold in January to the Bushfire Emergency Wildlife Fund. We urge all Australian veterinarians to stock up on microchips now! See here for more details.

Specialised Animal Nutrition has been providing stock of Critical Care for herbivores to wildlife shelters.

Chemical Essentials have also kicked in and supplied F10 packs for use in the field.
