Subject: RE: Large animal vets - dangerous occupation


CNY		My wife is a large animal vet
One of her vet school classmates got into doing dairy nutrition work. He was looking at the face of a silage pile and it collapsed on him and killed him, several years ago.
So there’s another thing for your list

She has gotten a lot smarter about when she goes places demanding better handling facilities. Lots of people want to half a** get into some kind of livestock and cheap out on a way to handle them (usually just want to use a halter for about everything). One guy got upset because his cows were nuts and he expected her to just jump in with all of them and halter them by herself. She told him he needed a rodeo clown, not a vet, and left.
