Veterinarians or vets are medical professionals who protect the health and well-being of both animals and people. They must have a typical four-year college education and have earned a doctor of veterinary medicine degree.

A total of 7 to 9 years: 3-5 years undergraduate plus 4 years of veterinary school. Most vets treat small pets, including dogs, cats, and gerbils. But a few focus on large animals, such as sheep, cows, and horses. Veterinarians play a big part in our society.

According to The Role of Veterinary Research in Human Society on the website of https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK22905/ “All activities of veterinary scientists affect human health either directly through biomedical research and public health work or indirectly by addressing domestic animal, wildlife, or environmental health.”They sustain life as we know it to be.

They help prevent disease carried by animals including Rabies, Zoonosis, Anthrax, etc. Which tend to be the most common.

According to Veterinarians: Protecting the Health of Animals and People on the website https://www.avma.org/public/YourVet/Pages/Veterinarians.aspx

“Veterinarians in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) also protect the health and safety of animals and people through their work in developing disease surveillance and antiterrorism procedures and protocols.” They can treat animals with care.

Animal doctors, such as vets, are capable of working indoors or outdoors. TV shows like The Vet Life or Dr. Dee: Alaska Vet are familiar with these options. The title Other veterinarians operate outside of the realm of domestic or farm animals, but rather with wildlife and environment comes from the website http://www.healthforanimals.org/healthy-animals/the-role-of-veterinarian.html.

All veterinarians, from those who work with farm animals to pets to wild animals, play a crucial role in protecting human health as well by managing crises such as diseases and zoonoses and foodborne diseases.

Cross-border collaboration, communication and cooperation between veterinarians, represented by the World Veterinary Association (WVA), and the various animal and human health-focussed agencies and industries they work with, such as the OIE, FAO and WHO, are important parts of global health initiatives.” Vets are usually flexible and reliable.
