Moby ID: 19968

GAME OVERVIEW

Being a veterinarian at a world-class zoo takes a lot of skill. But you have plenty of time to practice as you treat 30 different cases including an elephant with a foot infection, a pregnant penguin, a hyperactive zebra and a gorilla with an injured finger that needs to be operated on. You have 40 realistic medical tools at your disposal, and can ask questions of the vet technician or zookeeper who reported each problem. When you're done with each case, find out how you did by meeting with the head veterinarian. You might even get a promotion or two if you're able to show how skilled you are. And as an added bonus, try your hand at animal trivia and other games when you're in between cases.
