| Diagnostic
examinations are an important service provided by the Southeastern
Cooperative Wildlife Disease Study. During the past quarter
century, experienced SCWDS diagnosticians have investigated thousands
of cases of sick and dying wild animals involving many different
species of wildlife. The diagnostic process includes a full
examination of each animal's post-mortem condition to determine
explanations of its death.
Over the years, these investigations have
led to a broad base of expertise and have revealed those recurring
disease problems that are important in each wildlife species.
Diagnostic service allows wildlife biologists, veterinarians, land
managers, and the public to monitor wild animals for potential wildlife
health problems.
