This was a very good meeting with a fantastic presentation by Joanna. we all learnt a great deal and the Tortoise Faecal Project showed around 65% of those tortoises tested had parasites in their poo.

Thanks go to our vets who give up their free time to talk to us and give such wonderful presentations.
