Triangle Veterinary Referral Hospital

Description

Triangle Veterinary Referral hospital is not able to take wildlife cases from the public because we don't have any licensed rehabilitators on staff; it's safer for the animals to go directly to a rehabber that can take care of them properly. But that doesn't mean that we don't do what we can to help out! Dr Grafinger, our surgeon, has an interest and experience in exotics and so he volunteers his expertise to several organizations that work with any number of fascinating animals. One of those groups is CLAWS, Inc ., a nonprofit organization that is dedicated to helping wild and exotic animals. They rehabilitate animals with the goal of being able to release them back into the wild, and use non-releasable animals to educate the public about how to safely live in harmony with native wildlife. Recently one of their resident animals, a charming raccoon by the name of Rocky, stopped eating and became suspiciously lethargic. When we sedated Rocky and took some radiographs, Dr Grafinger identified a probable foreign body in Rocky's intestines.

CLAWS, Inc . is a nonprofit organization that is dedicated to helping wild and exotic animals, through educating the public as well as rescuing and rehabilitating those animals in need. Their educational programs and wildlife rehabilitation are done on a local basis. Triangle Veterinary Referral Hospital has been working with CLAWS to help provide emergency and specialty care to some of their rescued animals. We have been involved in diagnosis, treatment and surgery of many of CLAWS animals over the years.
