VetWorld: Dropping Science Like It's Hot

Cover reveal! The full issue isn’t out yet, but we couldn’t wait to share this 😄📖 Designed by @riyaz_sher

What if giving your dog a little treat could make their meals tastier and greener? 🌱🐶 Turns out, that treat could be… crickets. Weird? Maybe. But a study shows that just 2% cricket protein makes dogs eat more happily. The takeaway? Give the dog its treat.

July 2025 issue is live! New month, new #research. Go check it before your lab mates do. 👀 🔗 veterinaryworld.org/Vol.18/No.7.php

@HalfBakedVet So sorry to hear that. 😟

NOW EXTINCT The last male White Rhino, is protected at all times by a squad of 4 people , There are only three northern white rhinos left in the world, and a worsening infection could be getting the best of one of them, but not anymore. Saying goodbye to a subspecies, thia is..

🥵 It’s getting hotter — even for chickens. What if adding probiotics to their water could help? Turns out, it made the birds a bit cooler and improved gut health. No big change in growth, but could this be a tiny win for farming in a hotter world? #ClimateChange #Poultry #Chickens

@AnneatSaveMe He/She/They is/are looking so happy. Awww🥰

Please remember to put water out for wildlife. A simple dish of clean water can make a huge difference to hedgehogs, birds – even bees. Place it in a shaded spot, keep it topped up, and you might be surprised by who comes to visit. 🦡🦔🦋🌿🐝

@oceana That’s… a lot of meat. 🐟🔥

#DIDYOUKNOW: Yellowfin tuna can grow to weigh over 400 pounds! 🐟

Submitting a manuscript feels like a transfer window. You think it’s going through, but suddenly ‘under review’. 📄⚽ #Transfers #AcademicTwitter #researchpaper

🐄 Indonesia’s native cattle are vanishing, not from farms, but from their DNA. Centuries of genetic adaptation are being erased by uncontrolled crossbreeding. This is more than genetics. It’s cultural loss. It’s ecological risk. #SaveNativeCattle #CattleGenetics #OneHealth #Indonesia #BiodiversityLoss

🐟 Ever wonder what heavy metals do to FISH? Female Nile tilapia in Indonesia’s Brantas River are showing shrinking eggs, dead cells, & inflamed ovaries thanks to cadmium & iron in the water. How should we fix this problem? 😶‍🌫️ #Fish #OneHealth #FoodSafety #Indonesia

@jecondraysbak Cool idea, but let’s be honest, a lot of undergrad students never even touch a paper. Maybe we should focus on them too. 👀📄

I just found this journal wherein (adult) researchers can reframe their published works into 1.5k-word papers that should be understandable to 8-15 year olds! (The kids are referred to as 'young reviewers!') It tackles papers in the natural and applied sciences. Wow!

@Seasaver Scientific evidence, not sentiment, shows the ecological cost of whale hunts.

There’s no need to kill cetaceans to feed the Faroese. 🇫🇴 It is pure national pride. ❌ An outdated tradition viewed as a blood sport.🩸If the cruelty against sentient animals isn’t enough to stop the grindadráp, the toxicity of the meat should be. 🐋🐬 blueplanetsociety.org/its-beyond-tim…

🐔Can a chicken start the next pandemic? 🇮🇩 Indonesian scientists found mutated H9N2 flu viruses in bird markets, showing signs of adapting to humans. Would you still eat meat from a live bird market after reading this? (Great protein though 😮‍💨) #AvianFlu #Chicken #Virus #Zoonosis #OneHealth #Indonesia

If your lab is on fire. What are you saving? 🧾 grant file 🧫 your isolated microbes ☕️ the PI’s cursed mug 🌀 the centrifuge that sometimes works reply with your pick and pain 😭👇 #AcademicTwitter #PhD #researchvibes #STEM

@OneHealthPlanet Absolutely 🙂

Antimicrobial resistance: does it matter for plant health too? fao.org/one-health/hig…

📢 Did you know? Nearly 1 in 5 urban cats in Kazakhstan carry intestinal parasites like Toxocara, Giardia, or Toxoplasma. Stray cats & kittens were most at risk 🐱⚠️ These parasites aren't just a cat problem; they’re a human health concern too. #OneHealth #Zoonoses #Cats #Kazakhstan

Did you know bees might help fight malaria? 🐝 Researchers tested propolis (bee glue) & found it kills the malaria parasite better than some old-school drugs like chloroquine. Nature is wild. Isn't it? 🌿 #Malaria #BeeFacts #NatureMedicine

🐏 Mix it up! Feeding sheep a 50:50 mash-pellet combo makes their meat juicier and heavier, no performance dip. Science says so. 🧪🍖 #SheepFarming #MeatQuality #AnimalNutrition #VetScience #FarmToFork #ScienceForAll #DidYouKnow #FoodFacts

🥚 Your eggs could be carrying bacteria that no antibiotic on Earth can kill. Global research found E. coli and Salmonella on eggshells some fully resistant to treatment. Still think your breakfast is safe? 👇 #Eggs #FoodSafety #OneHealth #AntibioticResistance

Big pharma won’t like this, but nature just showed us a way to fight diabetes without synthetic meds. Why aren’t we funding more of this kind of research? 👇 Would you trust a plant-based diabetes treatment if it worked? #Diabetes #NaturalHealth #PlantBased #HealthNews #HerbalMedicine
