Having (just) recovered from their Christmas festivities, including a face-to-face catch up in Melbourne, Mark and Brendan reminisce over the happenings in 2017. They look into their crystal ball for 2018 and consider the future of veterinary science. We receive a fascinating email from a subscriber in Singapore, who educates us on the otter population in Singapore. In other news we report of a fire at London Zoo, person is killed in the USA from a dog attack, and we discuss an article about Christmas and dogs. Mark is concerned about the low genetic diversity of ferrets in some geographical locations, and is looking younger due to his skiing. Our main topic this episode is our thoughts on the year about to end and what to expect in 2018 - what is the outlooks for graduates? What are the likely popular species of pets? We wish all our subscribers and listeners a wonderful New Year and a safe and happy 2018. We look forward to talking to you soon... and don't forget to send us an email to say hi.
