OUR MANAGING DIRECTOR
DR COBUS RAATH
Dr Cobus Raath qualified with a BVSc degree from the University of Pretoria’s Onderstepoort Veterinary Faculty in South Africa in 1985. He spent the first 11 years of his career as the head veterinarian for SANParks, stationed in Kruger National Park, where he developed many of the systems and management plans that are still in place today.
After leaving SANParks to set up a private wildlife veterinary practice, he soon realised the necessity for the development of conservation medicines globally. Demonstrating his passion for his work and his vision for the future of conservation in South Africa and abroad, Dr Raath registered Wildlife Pharmaceuticals (Pty) Ltd in 1997.
Today, Dr Raath remains actively involved in the wildlife veterinary industry, dedicating his expertise and time to numerous research projects and sharing his knowledge and skills with veterinarians around the world by hosting wildlife immobilisation courses.
