Wildlife Workshop with Lucky Boy | Cayo Scoop!  The Ecology of Cayo Culture | Scoop.it

The Belize Zoo recently had a wildlife workshop where veterinarians from Belize and Guatemala joined Forest Department officials and zoo staff, UB students and their instructor “Jaguar-Man” Dr. Bart Harmson, Birds Without Borders researchers, and noted jaguar researcher, Omar Figueroa.  They did a checkup on Lucky Boy, and he's doing great, and putting the weight back on faster than expected.

 

"The Lucky Boy exam indeed had a happy ending.  Friendships formed, medical information about our rescued jaguar we previously did not know was gained, and recommendations due to the veterinarian findings, are now being discussed, which will ensure an even happier life for this superb black jaguar.  Lucky Boy meets his Belize public for the first time, on grounds at the zoo, December 12th!"
