Metabolic Bone Disease

Metabolic Bone Disease

Each species has specific nutritional needs. Untrained and inexperienced people can cause metabolic bone disease, a debilitating disease that may or may not be reversible, by feeding a wild animal an incomplete diet.

Bones will not develop properly and the animal suddenly not be able to walk, or will break a bone during normal movement. An animal with this disease may need to be euthanized.
