Author at Animals Around The Globe. BSc Animal Science & Veterinarian Studies
I am a born and raised Capetonian with a strong love for all things animals and outdoors. I am currently a first-year veterinary student at the University of Pretoria in South Africa. I completed a BSc in Animal Science at Stellenbosch University, where my passion for working with animals only became stronger. I have always surrounded myself with animals and been fortunate enough to work closely with them. I hope I can share some of my passions for animals with all of you as readers.
