Zoo Hoofstock Trim Program
Tool & Equipment List
Providing quality hoof care to the variety of hoof stock at zoological facilities is of paramount importance. The ability of the hoof care provider to perform these tasks consistently, efficiently, and accurately requires certain tools and equipment that can often times mean the difference for successful procedures and the safety of the animals. We have compiled a list that we have found not only the best but also very necessary in most cases.
