Turtle Health, Care, and Pathology

CheloniaCast is joined by Dr. Oz Ossiboff to discuss turtle and tortoise veterinary medicine and pathology. Dr. Ossiboff is DVM/PhD at the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine in the Department of Comparative, Diagnostic & Population Medicine. The conversation ranges from pathology to the relationship between captive reptile keepers and exotic veterinarians. The testudine immune system is also discussed in some detail, with discussion of various diseases including testudine herpesvirus and Testudine Intranuclear Coccidiosis. The technology used in pathology is fascinating and also discussed.
