About Program
At LCTW we currently care for a variety of species numbering over 400 animals. This program was designed to give veterinary students or veterinarians the experience needed to work with wildlife in the future.
This is a learning experience. You will be taught all aspects of wildlife veterinary care from pathology, geriatric care, trauma surgery, routine checkups to intake of new animals that were rescued from the illegal wildlife trade. You won't just receive instructions and tasks, the idea of this program is for you to shadow our vet team and learn how to treat wildlife correctly. We want to help you become great wildlife vets and our vet team is more than willing to answer your questions along the way.

Location
Laos is typically not regarded as touristy, especially in comparison to its highly touristy neighboring countries of Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia; however, this is slowly changing as people now associate Laos with a laid back style of living.
