In the frame of animal welfare practical training, a group of students from the University of Veterinary Medicine Budapest visited the Richter Circus at Kecskemét last week. <\/strong><\/p>

At the site, Richter József, the director of the circus showed us around and we could learn more about their daily routine: how they train and take care of the elephants, zebras, and camels. In the circus special attention is paid to the care of these exotic animals – there is a special bond between the trainer and the animal. If the animals are not properly cared and trained, they would probably not be cooperative at all.<\/p>

“We teach students from all around the world, therefore, it is important for them to meet these animals and get some experiences<\/em>.” – said Dr. Kinga Fodor professor.<\/p>

“It was quite an experience: I had the chance to clean the elephant’s feet and eyes. I’ve never got this close to exotic animals. It was amazing.<\/em>” – said one of our students.<\/p>

 We would like to thank this opportunity to the Richter Circus and to Dr. Kinga Fodor professor for organizing this trip.<\/strong><\/p> <\/p><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

It’s not always easy to decide which profession is best for us when we are young. But this summer the University of Veterinary Medicine Budapest showed that becoming a veterinarian can be a good choice. With a one-week program, we showed for a bunch of young titans what university studies are like as a vet student and life as a vet. We are sure by the end of the summer school our guests will have a better understanding of what vets do. As a plus, the program took place in vibrant and beautiful Budapest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5823,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[38,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6607","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-featured","category-news"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6607","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5823"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6607"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6607\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":172232,"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6607\/revisions\/172232"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6607"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6607"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6607"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
