I am studying the three-legged spotted dormouse (Glis limpus acnus) in the wild. How relevant will the course be?
The content of the course reflects the fact that the vast majority of delegates will be working with laboratory animals. It is obviously difficult (if not impossible) to teach a course that focuses on a particular wild species and you will have to select a laboratory species (amongst those on offer), which most closely resemble the one that you will be studying. However, a number of principles remain valid: they include the law, humane (and legal) methods of euthanasia, principles of anaesthesia, suturing techniques as well as ethical considerations. Indeed the welfare implications (and the skill of the researcher) when working with wild animals are particularly relevant because small perturbations are more likely to affect fitness in the wild. Note that within the general constraints mentioned above, the course staff are always keen to make the course as useful and relevant as possible. You will be provided with a feedback form at the end of the course, and you are welcome to make sug
