News-Gazette (May 17) – Dr. Sam Sander, who leads the University of Illinois Veterinary Teaching Hospital’s zoo ambulatory service, oversees the care of animals ranging from cockroaches, spiders and scorpions to rhinos, giraffes and tigers in three central Illinois zoos.
“These facilities are diverse and eclectic,” Sander says, “so our students gain exposure to animals in a variety of situations and get to help provide care to those animals, too.”
