Hapless Bills Fan Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Never say TBD isn't educational Yesterday I learned that vaccinating Great Apes begins with a popsicle stick. The keepers train the apes to lounge their side/back against heavy wire mesh on the keeper-side of their enclosures. They show them a popsicle stick, give them treats when they assume the correct position, then poke them gently in the arm with the popsicle stick. Next they move on to poking them with an empty syringe When the apes are all "yeah, yeah, where's my banana?" the keeper vaccinates them. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/louisiana-zoo-animals-covid-vaccinate/ I didn't know animal vaccination has been ongoing since March: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/newsletters/article/for-great-apes-a-vaccine-of-their-own-20210304 (Apparently if you want this to keep working, you need to keep doing it after the vaccination for a while, then regularly) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
