This awesome piece of machinery is the
world’s only all-terrain, entirely self-sufficient, mobile veterinary hospital
capable of running outreach programmers, training courses and mobile clinics. It
can provide veterinary resources in the most remote of locations where they are
most needed.
The entire vehicle concept was
developed in the United Kingdom on a design created by WVS and realized by the
body specialists VIPEX based at Sutton-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire. The
Zetros-based rescue unit with its appealing design is not just the flagship of
the WVS campaign; it also provides a visual illustration of the humanitarian
message of rabies control and the preventive measures being undertaken.
