Technical Large Animal Emergency Rescue Training

Instructors: Drs. Tomas and Rebecca Gimenez

 

 The TLAER course offers training nationwide
for emergency response community members such as
firefighters, rescue squads, police, sheriff's, animal control officers, and large animal veterinarians.
 
Over the last ten years, the emergency community has begun to respond to these types of common incidents as the public has adopted a "911 call does it all" mentality, creating a need for awareness and operational training in this speicalty.
"Taken from Dr. Tomas Gimenez, please see his website at: http://www.tlaer.org/

The principles behind using slings and ropes for animal transport are not new, as shown in the National Geographic photograph below, Circa September 1921.

  'Throughout the whole region ... bridges are few and primitive, “wrote A.L. Shelton, author of 'Life Among the People of Eastern Tibet."

This image of a precarious Mekong River crossing was first published in 1921.

 'With his mount securely trussed to the rope bridge, the owner supplies his own motive power, hand over hand, as he pulls himself and beast across the chasm with the river far below.'

- From National Geographic "Flashback," April 2002, National Geographic magazine
