New Institutional Membership Pricing

Like all of you, AnimalProfessional.com is disappointed that many scheduled animal conferences of the season are not taking place. They are a valuable time to network, ask questions and share the lessons of the past year.
In order to find the silver lining of this disrupted conference season and provide important continuing education from home or office, we are providing Institutional memberships for free through December 31, 2020. After December 31, 2020, we invite your institution to continue to have access to AnimalProfessional.com at new unprecedented rates. This will give your entire staff access to ALL the conference videos from the past 10 years.  
 
The new pricing is based on number of Full Time Employees (FTE) at your institution. However, you can share the videos with any of your staff, volunteers or docents at your discretion. Yearly subscriptions are:
 
X-Small Institution (1 to 20 FTE) $500 (Save $500 or 50%)
 
Small Institution (21 to 50 FTE) $1000 (SAVE $1,500 or 60%)
 
Medium Institution (51 to 200 FTE) $1,500 (SAVE $8,500 or 85%)          
 
Large Institution (201 to 300 FTE) $2,000 (SAVE $13,000 or 87%)
 
XL Institution (Over 300 FTE) $3,000   Unlimited Savings!

​​Using today's technology to share information globally for the benefit of the animal world. This is not just our mission it is our passion. We believe the most effective way to benefit the animals with whom we share the planet is to share what is known.

We partner with animal organizations to record conference presentations and present those presentations here for our members and partners.

Integrating Animal-Centered Decision Making in Wildlife Rehabilitation

Sound decision-making is the basis of getting to good outcomes for our wildlife patients. Yet our decision-making is often complicated by competing inputs and insufficient knowledge. We deal with tough, weighty decisions involving an animal’s life and future every day. And in a world of seemingly unlimited information but limited resources, we often turn to the information world for new knowledge. The simple concept of evidence-based decision making often isn’t simple to implement. How do we disentangle what we can do from what we should do?

Design and Testing of an Automated LSS System for Animal Transport

Design and Testing of an Automated LSS System for Animal Transport

Kevin Curlee,
Disney The Seas​

Historically, the long‐distance transport of large teleost and elasmobranch specimens, weather newly collected or moved between collaborating facilities has been occasionally problematic. Even when purged and/or sedated, the high metabolic demands of a large mass animal often result in deterioration of water quality over long hours of transport. The window for successful transport is narrow and fear of mortality/morbidity is an ever‐present during these operations. The Walt Disney EPCOT Water Science Department, in collaboration with Aquatic Equipment and Design Inc. (AED), and McDaniel Consulting, LLC (MDC) have devised a fully portable, remotely monitored, animal transport life support system to greatly increase the margin of safety during transport. The system actively monitors and controls flow in the transport container, controls temperature, captures suspended solids, and maintains dissolved gas in water by using innovative technology re‐purposed from the pharmaceutical and semi‐conductor industry without the need for atmospherically vented or column de‐gassing systems.
