Veterinary and Aquatic Animal Health
Veterinary and aquatic animal health involves the science and practices that ensure the well-being of animals, including those in freshwater and marine environments. This field addresses diagnosing, treating, and preventing diseases in animals such as pets, farm animals, and aquatic species like fish and shellfish. It also focuses on maintaining healthy ecosystems, promoting responsible animal husbandry, and ensuring food safety. By understanding animal biology and disease management, professionals help protect animal populations, support sustainable aquaculture, and safeguard public health from zoonotic diseases that can transfer from animals to humans.
