Companion Animal Health Fund

The Western College of Veterinary Medicine created the Wildlife Health Fund in 1981 to encourage and support applied research and training in health and disease of free-ranging wildife. The expertise and knowledge gained is now applied to wildlife conservation and management, public health and food safety in Western Canada and elsewhere.

Since 1977, the Equine Health Research Fund has had a tremendous influence on the quality of horse health care that's available in Western Canada and around the world. The research fund has also played a major role in making the Western College of Veterinary Medicine a national centre for horse health research and specialized training.
