South African Veterinary Wildlife Services

South African Veterinary Wildlife Services (VWS) is a specialized branch responsible for the health and conservation of wildlife across South Africa. They work to prevent and control diseases that can affect wild animals, ensure the welfare of species, and support conservation efforts. VWS conducts health assessments, vaccination programs, and research, often collaborating with national parks and conservation organizations. Their work helps protect biodiversity, prevent the spread of diseases between wildlife and livestock or humans, and promote sustainable management of wild animal populations.
