Can the vaccines be given to zoo animals?
• There is a long history of zoo animals of many different susceptible species being vaccinated, for example within continental Europe. Whilst it is likely that the vaccines would provide protection to non-domestic (wild) susceptible species, they are not tested in these species and as a result it is not known whether they reach a strong immune status after vaccination. As the “oil emulsion” preparation can be given by intramuscular injection, it could be administered by dart.
