Sharon Redrobe (picture above with a macaw) has joined the University of Nottingham.
An acknowledged expert on wild and exotic animal medicine has joined The University of Nottingham and will be sharing her time between the School of Veterinary Medicine and Science (SVMS) and Twycross Zoo.

Sharon Redrobe will help to develop zoological veterinary research and run clinical rotations at the zoo for final year vet students.
 
Redrobe said: “This is a very exciting development in the training of UK vet students. Zoo and exotic pet medicine is an important and expanding area of vet medicine. Every single vet student graduating from The University of Nottingham will have had training at one of the best zoos in the country. Twycross Zoo is to be commended for assisting with this exciting opportunity to train the next generation of vet students.”
