Aw thank you so much thats so sweet❤ and yes, we vegan vets need to stick together to make the industry a better place for our patients and other animals ☺

Many. I face moral dilemmas on a weekly basis. You can name any subject I've ever taken in vet school and I can give you a list of moral dilemmas I've had in that class. Pharmacology: we only give the most effective treatment to small animals because it's too expensive to pay for the best treatment for a cow, so it's "better" to give an older medicine because it's cheaper, even if it has more side effects. Anatomy: animals were euthanized specifically for me to learn and practice on. Nutrition: calculate the least amount of feed necessary to make an animal grow the biggest as fast as possible. The list is endless. You just have to accept it as societal propaganda and try to pull useful information from what you're taught. I remind myself why I'm doing this and I tell myself it's okay to feel upset, but to just keep working at it because vets like us are who will change the world for animals for the better. If people as passionate about animals as us give up, who will be working for the animals?

Good question! I've thought about this myself a bit but this is what I concluded:Let me just start by saying I under no circumstance think it's okay to artificially force a pregnancy upon another being - human or not. However, the definition of rape by the Oxford Dictionary states that rape is "the crime, typically committed by a man, of forcing another person to have sexual intercourse with the offender against their will" and artificial insemination just doesn't fit that definition. So while I disagree with artificial insemination for animal production purposes, it is not, by definition, rape. I hope this helped :)

Yes you can! However, it wont be recognized by the AVMA. I have family in both Europe and America so I had to do extra accreditation either way and just decided to go to a European school instead of an American one; however, what I didn't realize when I applied to vet school is that there *are* AVMA-accredited schools in Europe:VetArgo Sup in FranceU of London in EnglandU of Dublin in IrelandU of Utrecht in the NetherlandsU of Glasgow and Edinburgh, both in ScotlandIf you want an entire list of all schools accredited by the AVMA, go to avma.org :) I hope this helped and feel free to ask if you have any more questions or want more information, I'm always here to help the best I can :)

Hey! Thank you so much for your question. I can't speak for all vet schools, but at my university, we are required to take animal production and production management courses. This will include rectal exams of cows, artificial insemination of cows, mares and sows, as well as learning how to calculate the proper time for slaughter to maximize profits. It's absolute hell, a living nightmare. But I wanted to go to school where I would be qualified to work with all domestic animals, and unfortunately the only way for me to learn about pigs (my fav animal) is to learn how to mass produce and kill them as well. I'd recommend contacting the school and then professors. My professors all know I'm sensitive to that kind of stuff and take it into consideration when giving me tasks at our farm. Sorry this was so long-winded... I have a lot to say about this. Hope this helped and feel free to ask me something else if you have more questions about it :)
