Description

On this week's episode of Aquadocs, host Dr. Michelle Greenfield-Feig interviews Dr. Alissa Mones, Associate Veterinarian at Virginia Aquarium and Marine Science Center. Dr. Mones recently published a study about best methods for humanely euthanizing blue crabs (Callinectes sapidus). She specifically looked at potassium chloride, ivermectin, and lidocaine hydrochloride as potential options. You'll have to tune in to find out which she found was best. And stick around to the end to hear about Dr. Mones's experience completing the North Carolina State Residency program in the American College of Zoological Medicine. She'll discuss the basics of the program and her tips on submitting a strong application.
