I studied Veterinary Medicine to devote my life to wildlife management and diseases research. It was not easy, but after years of effort, I achieved my goal and helped other people to understand the importance of infectious diseases in wildlife conservation. It took years to show to other vet colleagues the role of veterinary science not only on public and animal health but also on conservation biology. However, events proved that it was right. Now, is time to create multidisciplinary teams to deal with wildlife pathology and conservation issues.
