Projects

Raptor Health Scotland is a collaborative project assessing the health of birds of prey as indicators for ecosystem health.

We have a long-standing programme of disease surveillance in Scottish red squirrels, which has led to a number of more-focused research projects and associated publications on the epidemiology and diagnosis of diseases of squirrels.

We provide clinical and scientific veterinary support to the Scottish Wildcat Conservation Action Group.

Trypanosomiasis case studies in Zambia and Zimbabwe.

We are providing veterinary support for Golden Eagle reinforcement efforts.

We are developing a disease risk analysis to forecast the outcomes of future wild releases of scimitar-horned oryx in Tunisia.

We are conducting health risk analyses (also known as disease risk analyses) for, and providing health management guidance to, waterbird conservation translocation projects being undertaken in the UK and Madagascar.

The Wildlife Health Bridge is a collaborative project between the Zoological Society of London, Royal Veterinary College, Wildlife Institute of India, University of Edinburgh and University of Melbourne.
