Thank you Dr Wenrich for speaking to my freshman seminar class recently showcasing your career path. Dr Wenrich is a Veterinary and Biomedical Sciences graduate and completed a master's degree while a reproductive biologist for Merck before attending veterinary school. She is currently a small animal veterinarian.

Dr Wenrich and I graduated from PSU together, but she completed a senior year veterinary rotation with me in practice.

9/11/2001 = Sophomore year of vet school before nutrition class
It took an estimated a combined 3.1 million hours to clean up 1.8 million tons of debris and besides the immediate death, there have been hundreds since due to exposure side effects. For my undergraduate students, this is history to them. They were born after 2001.
While many can't remember the emotions from that day personally, I hope we can demonstrate and exhibit the collaboration and togetherness that happened in response to that horrific event. Multiple disciplines working together. People caring for each other. A One Health approach to recovery, support, and moving forward.

Rabies in the news.... it's an ongoing endemic public health concern. Here are 2 recent stories, from Canada (bat exposure) and the ongoing seal crisis in South Africa. The photo is from the CDC of a positive Direct Fluorescent Antibody test, still the gold standard of diagnosing rabies in a section of brain tissue post-mortem. The bright green color is the rabies virus. A negative result will have not fluoresce.

We like to briskly walk while our son runs the local park's frisbee golf course for his XC workout. Tonight, a local farmer was mowing down the grassy areas between the fairways (excuse my frisbee ignorance in terms if I'm wrong -- we never actually play!). It smelled WONDERFUL. It's not commercial feed quality, but smells like it! We walked 5 miles tonight. ❤️👃🏼

*Sidenote. This is a good reminder that having your hay/feed tested is so important for nutritional quality for your animals. This smells and looks good tonight. It is not a field of commercial/feed-grade hay. Talk to your veterinarian today about forage testing your own or purchased feeds.

Topics for that day focused around (US) government, NGO, and social determinants of health. Thank you to the students for humoring me and for contributing to the conversation.

I've always been passionate about rural veterinary medicine, supporting producers, helping my community, and educating students. My awesome clients from my years in practice helped educate so many students over the years! Now as a teaching professor at Penn State, I see a whole new generation of students from all different backgrounds! Thank you to Farm Journal Foundation @farmjournalfoundation for the opportunity to share more about ensuring rural veterinary success. @vbsatpennstate Department of Veterinary & Biomedical Sciences at Penn State Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture American Association of Bovine Practitioners PS.

Sharing a colleague's case with permission. This heifer was off-balance and salivating more than normal, but tongue muscle tone and vitals were normal. Minor dehydration, front limb ataxia, front limb muscle atrophy, and hypersalivation were noted. Symptoms were treated, but the heifer died. Due to the "odd" clinical presentation, she was tested for rabies post-mortem and was positive! All humans in contact began post-exposure treatments. The herd was then vaccinated for rabies and will be continually monitored. No one wants to talk about an animal dying - this is a big loss to the producer! However, it took an observant producer who called their regular veterinarian who took proactive measures with gloves and concern enough to rule out a fatal zoonotic disease. Great job by all involved including the producer, veterinarian, PDA, and DOH -- a One Health approach to animal and human health... And another example of the NEED for rural veterinarians at the forefront of disease surveillance. #academia #professor #courseprep #centralpa #vmvs #beefvetlife #beefvet #dairyvetlife #dairyvet #veterinarian #vetstudent #vetstudentlife #cowvet #veterinariansofinstagram #largeanimalvet #ruralvetlife #ruralvet #farmvetlife #farmvet #cowvetlife

Fun times doing a cow lung demonstration! It's a great way to show how pung anatomy and physiology can be affected during a case of respiratory disease in an animal.

The crispy cheese bits that don't stick to the eggs... It's like a potato chip for the dairy industry! ❤️🤪 @americandairyne

I loved where our rental house was in Blacksburg -- out in the country, but 10 minutes to campus. ♥️. I may have snuck down our old road while I was in town....

Virginia Tech campus, beautiful as always ... It probably doesn't help it's 60 degrees out. 🥰

Hit the road this am and got to see a new area of rural south central PA to pick up something for future educational purposes. The calm before the snow storm tomorrow....

Flashback to the PA Farm Show! What a fun day interacting with our community! ♥️ @thecalvingcornerpa @pafarmshow

I always loved a porcupine emergency, no matter what the species! I wonder what the cow was thinking when it decided to kiss a porcupine! . The cow was sedated, provided pain medication, and then restrained to remove the quills and recovered with no complications and was back to eating within a couple hours. I, however, giggled for days.... 🤪 #beefvet #ruralvetlife #ruralvet #porcupine #porcupinequills #farmvet #whatwashethinking #cowvet #cowvetlife #cowsofinstagram #academia

Oh January..... 🥶❄️. Every day is another day closer to summer! ☀️ Stay warm until July gets here! . This music cracks me up! PS.... FYI, This video is sped up. I was cruising along at 20 mph. 🤦

Culpeper County, VA. What a beautiful day!

Phew... Well that was a crazy whirlwind 2.5 days! I'm still not sure what day it is. 😜😂🙃 Thank you to Farm Journal Foundation @farmjournalfoundation and National Milk Producers Federation National Milk Producers Federation , American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) , and Zoetis Zoetis Sustainability Foundation, and so many more for including me in these very important discussions about the rural veterinary crisis. #centralpa #vmvs #beefvetlife #beefvet #dairyvetlife #dairyvet #veterinarian #vetstudent #vetstudentlife #cowvet #veterinariansofinstagram #largeanimalvet #ruralvetlife #ruralvet #farmvetlife #farmvet #cowvetlife #makeadifference
