For my project, I created a poster describing the organelles of a typical animal cell. In order to make the concepts of the parts of the cell easier to understand, I compared them to the parts of an animal hospital. Also, by making these analogies, I emphasized how important cells are to veterinarians in the treatment of animals.

Taxonomy Matching Game
There are billions of living organisms on earth, in an effort to more effectively study them scientists need a way to classify them. One of the ways to do that is called taxonomy.

Canine Distemper
Canine Distemper is a single-stranded RNA virus that is potentially fatal to domestic animals such as dogs and ferrets. Closely related to measles, it causes vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, salivation, weight loss, involuntary twitching, and seizures. Canine Distemper, or CDV is spread through bodily fluids such as feces, urine, or nasal secretions. Although, it can be spread through food and water if it comes in contact with these fluids.

Caprine Birth Process
Waiting patiently, like I had been all winter long – the time had finally come. Now, you might be thinking like any typical seventeen year old that I was waiting for a set of keys to a brand new mustang or perhaps a pair of pink pumps. However, I was waiting on the birth of my very own Boer goat show doe. One this day Status Quo Barbie was brought into this world. From witnessing her birth along with many others, I was able to prepare and present my report over the caprine birth process. This veterinary science project walks through all of the steps from preparing your pregnant doe to minutes after the birth. Each step is coordinated with details to help the birth process go as smoothly as it possibly can. After viewing the board one should be able to successfully help their doe throughout the caprine birth process.
