Gail Buhl welcomes wildlife veterinarian Dr. Miranda Torkelson for a two-part discussion about the medical management of red foxes. Dr. Miranda starts out with some of her origin story, which includes highlights from her ambitious career in wildlife medicine. Later in the episode, Gail and Dr. Miranda cover the basics of red fox natural history as well as perspectives on often well-meaning but ill-informed attempts by members of the public to try to fight the parasite sarcoptic mange. Dr. Miranda explains why programs such as "Mange By Mail" can do more harm than good and why it's critical to leave treating wild animals to licensed veterinarians. Gail and Dr. Miranda share their own stories of contracting mange (often called scabies when it's an infection in humans). We get itchy just thinking about it!
Next episode, in Part 2, Dr. Miranda and Gail continue talking about the medical management of red foxes with topics that include trapping, more on treating mange, itch & pain control, housing and more! Dr. Miranda has a lot of wisdom and experience to offer on foxes, so we hope you'll join us for episode 11!
