Veterinary ServicesMentorship & Guidance4HighVeterinarian$ implied
Exotic DVM at a non-AZA zoo lacks supportive mentorship and faces rude, unhelpful responses from senior clinicians on VIN, making it hard to get case advice for zoo/wildlife medicine.
VIN is the primary online community but senior clinicians are rude and critical, discouraging help-seeking and not providing constructive guidance for non-traditional career paths like zoo/wildlife medicine.
