Veterinary Technology Colleges
Veterinarians play a major role in the healthcare of pets, livestock, and zoo,
sporting, and laboratory animals. Some veterinarians use their skills to protect humans against

Others work in basic research, broadening the scope of fundamental theoretical knowledge and,
in applied research, developing new ways to use knowledge.
