Florida Wildlife Disease Association Student Chapter

 

The Wildlife Disease Association is an organization that seeks to acquire, disseminate, and apply knowledge of the health and diseases of wild animals in relation to their biology, conservation, and interactions with humans and domestic animals. It is founded on the principles of One Health and conservation, and is made up of members from a variety of backgrounds, including veterinary medicine, ecology, wildlife conservation, public health experts, and zoo and aquarium staff. We seek to create an organization here at UF that encompasses these disciplines and offers new opportunities to young professionals in the field.
