And Dr. Bonnie Raphael does not only stay at EPRC for 1 day, 1 week, but 3 MONTHS! She is a highly recognizable veterinarian with 20 years of experience with taking care of animals in WCS (Wildlife Conservation Society). Despite her retirement last year, Bonnie came back to EPRC to care for the health of primates at our center. Our deepest appreciation goes to you, a kind and warm-hearted woman Bonnie Raphael.
Since the day she arrived in the middle of August, she has been working tirelessly with some operations on primates at EPRC. Below are some photos from a surgery for Noisy Chi – the Indochinese Grey Langur who had a tumor on her tail.
