| 11034 | d672fbd7aa02a96f | 2.40(b)(3) | 1 | ATTENDING VETERINARIAN AND ADEQUATE VETERINARY CARE (DEALERS AND EXHIBITORS). | The macaque known as Huey had a wound on the tip of its tail. This lesion was about 1/2 inch long and was red and raw. Tail wounds of this nature can spread rapidly if not treated in a timely fashion as the animal will continue to pick at this area. This can lead to infection which can ultimately require tail tip amputation. No one at the facility had noticed the condition of this monkey. Failure to observe health issues and promptly report them to the attending veterinarian will lead to unnecessary suffering and in extreme cases even possible animal death. Thorough daily observations of all animals should be made. Animals with known problems should receive extra scrutiny. Report all health issues promptly to the veterinarian. |
