Marisa is a mobile vet based in Perth, Western Australia. Since a kid she has loved goats. Now, she sees all types of livestock, but primarily goats. Internal parasite control is a special interest of hers because this disease severely affects goats, sheep, and camelids, and there are so many useful control strategies individuals can adopt depending on their circumstances. Marisa actively seeks for effective replacements to modern drugs to increase health and manage disease.
