No
Description
Learn about Prosthetic devices, learn the anatomy behind amputations and learn how to build a prosthesis. Also learn how to fit a prosthetic device to amputated wildlife and animals. Also experience stories about wildlife and learn how to work with wildlife that underwent trauma! This course will also include rehabilitation of wildlife and how to work with wildlife & animals that underwent trauma.This course will take you from the anatomy of amputations, reason for amputations and caring for amputated limbs on animals and wildlife to the process of designing a prosthesis for an amputated animal. Then, you will learn about the stump and how to take a cast of the stump. After that, you will learn about plasterwork and sculpturing of a stump of the animal. Then, finally you will see the manufacturing process of the prosthesis and you will experience, step by step, how an prosthesis is being manufactured and finished. After that you will get a change to learn about how to fit a prosthetic to wildlife that underwent trauma and how to apply this prosthetic device. Then, as important as the prosthesis itself, you will learn about the rehabilitation of that animal, how to work with that animal and how to handle the animal, whether it is a wild animal or not!This course will take you on a journey you definitely want to be on, from the starting point in animal veterinary science, getting pulled into the medical world with prosthetics then getting out at a newly, self rewarding, discovered avenue of wildlife prosthetics & rehabilitation.So, hop on board!
