Revamping animal welfare is like turning a cargo ship. It takes leadership, teamwork, and unwavering presence. At Seaboard, culture, care and consistency steer every decision because the smallest action can shape the biggest outcome. My name is Emma Mannery and I am a 3rd year veterinary student at Iowa State University. I had the pleasure to interview Dr. Brooke Kitting, Senior Veterinarian at Seaboard Foods. Her presentation was titled “Beyond the SOP: New perspectives on Animal Welfare,” which was a part of the AASV “Practice Tips” seminar.

This mp3 audio interview, as well as all other student interviews from the 56th and past AASV Annual Meetings, are available for download from the AASV Audio Library. https://www.aasv.org/aasv-podcasts/annual-meeting-interviews/
