@thewildlifevettx: Walking sedated Nyala bulls. Got called out to help move these healthy Nyala bulls for breeding management to help prevent inbreeding and reduce fighting between males. Nyala can be a very tricky species to work with, and a lot of people struggle to move them safely. But once you learn how to dial in the protocol and understand the species, the process becomes much smoother and significantly safer for both the animals and the people handling them. One of the coolest parts is that, with the right protocol, I can often get fully wild Nyala to calmly walk up to me so we can guide them where they need to go. That allows us to move them, treat injuries, perform exams, or even collect diagnostic samples with much less stress. Species-specific handling and understanding behavior makes all the difference in wildlife medicine. #TexasExoticWildlife #DrSamWilkinson #ExoticWildlifeVet #TheWildlifeVet #Veterinarian
