AVMA Launches Aardvarks2Zebras

The American Veterinary Medical Association, the national association representing more than 81,500 veterinarians in the U.S, has launched Aardvarks2Zebras, a website to put a friendly face to the concept of One Health, whose ethos is that the health of people, animals, and our environment are inextricably interconnected. Understanding and addressing the health issues created at this intersection is what One Health is all about. One Health is not a new concept. The theory was supported in the 1800s by William Osler and Rudolf Virchow, the Father of Comparative Pathology. "Our increasing interdependence with animals and their products has spurred the veterinary profession to collaborative efforts of multiple disciplines working locally, nationally, and globally, to attain optimal health for people, animals, and our environment", says Aardvarks2Zebras. The site aims to discuss and highlight the often-overlooked and unrecognized roles of veterinarians in animal and human health. Visit the Aardvarks2Zebras website to find out more
