And when you were there, where was this teaching?… Read More
Where did you teach?… Read More
Just to my wife. Read More
And she would travel with you to these various locations sometimes?… Read More
Yes. Read More
A lot of the things that have happened to me over the years have happened because I was prepared to respond to a request. And certainly that was the case. I was on a sabbatical leave, working at the San Diego zoo with keeper training programs, and the dean of… Read More
And yet he was a very knowledgeable pathologist and he was very cooperative, and he essentially gave me a carte blanche to develop a clinical program. And I did that and I think it was quite successful. The school is doing well now, but perhaps one of the most important… Read More
Some of them had never seen a white person before. And when a black person is burned, the scar tissue frequently comes in white and they thought I had been burned all over. But when I left, after that period of time, when I walked through there, I had a… Read More
Now, you mentioned you brought your wife and family or just your wife?… Read More
How did you get involved in the program and how successful was it?… Read More
Doesn’t matter what religion, I’ve studied all kinds of religions in the world, they’re good in all religions. And I appreciate the fact that I can worship how I choose, but it’s also important that I, by example, followed where my thoughts or where my actions went. Read More
A little different subject, kind of outside your role in the zoo, what should be the veterinarian’s role in conservation?… Read More

And that involves sometimes a… Read More
And I think veterinarian should be involved in that. There was a time when wildlife biologists would say, “A disease is not a factor in the lives of these animals, they simply either live or they die,” And come what may that’s it, but we’ve got to have a different… Read More
Well, that’s an interesting question because you acquire various statements. I’ve already mentioned the fact that a Will Rogers said, “I never knew a person that I didn’t like.” With the operative word being knew. I have several quotations on teaching the story of a student that came to, I… Read More
How did it impact your work, your research and your behavior toward animals and people?… Read More
Religion to me is a way of life. And I tried to incorporate the principles that are taught in the Mormon church or the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints into all aspects of our lives. Both my wife and I were born in the church, we were… Read More
And I had many occasions when students would use profanity excessively, and I couldn’t understand that in some situations, but I’ve talked to people, because they are not able to express themselves, and they just use profanity to emphasize this, that, and the other thing. And I contend that it’s… Read More
And I saw a young man probably in his twenties, maybe 25 or so walking up the trail or up the road with a group of young men that looked to be about 12 years of age. And I just had it in my mind, this guy has got a… Read More
Can you tell me one that’s you may carry that’s very meaningful to you. Read More
