The Animal Doctors

Veterinarians save far more than animals. They save families, friendships, memories and lives. In emergency rooms, operating theatres, wildlife reserves and conservation projects around the world, animal doctors face impossible decisions every day. A critically injured military dog airlifted from combat. A veterinarian performing emergency surgery to save a beloved family pet. Wildlife teams darting moose and grizzly bears in dangerous terrain. Zoo doctors racing to stop a deadly virus threatening elephants. Featuring a powerful range of first-hand accounts, James Patterson explores the courage, compassion and resilience of the people who dedicate their lives to caring for animals. Heart-warming, dramatic and inspiring, The Animal Doctors is a celebration of the extraordinary bond between humans and animals — and the remarkable people willing to fight for them.
