Inside the exotic animal clinic where anything can be treated
Step inside Dr. Susan Kelleher’s busy South Florida hospital to meet Antoinette, a tamandua. This video offers a glimpse into the specialized care required for species that far exceed the typical domestic pet.
Dr. Susan Kelleholder operates the Broward Avian and Exotics Animal Hospital in South Florida. Her practice is defined by a wide-ranging scope of care, following a motto that she will treat any animal capable of passing through her clinic doors. While many vets focus on common pets, Dr. K handles a diverse array of species, including primates, marsupials, reptiles, and birds.
The footage introduces Antoinette, a tamandua—a species of anteater originally from South America. By following the work at this high-volume exotic animal ER, viewers see the complexities involved in managing wildlife and non-traditional animals in a clinical setting.
