Welcome back in Martin’s newsletter!
A quick update about the health of our wonderful Cheetah “Sir Martin”.
Dr Peter Rogers, our Hoedspruit wildlife veterinary, visited DAKTARI to complete a full health check up on Martin. As he is getting older now we wanted to be sure that he is in good health and we are giving him the best care he deserves for his retirement.
After slightly sedating Martin, Dr Rogers gave him a full body check, including teeth, claws and blood tests to control his kidney and liver functions. The blood tests came back clear and Dr Rogers has confirmed Martin is in very good health for an old man!
In the meantime, Dr Rogers gave a full description and information facts to the local children and volunteers about cheetah. It was even possible to take pictures of each kid next to the cheetah while it was sleeping. The children could go home and show their pictures with the cheetah to their parents and peers.
Many thanks for your support and we will keep you updated with any changes to Martin’s health.
