Dawa, age 63, has been a veterinarian for 45 years. He notes his mentors’ working principles and methods greatly influenced his approaches, and books alone were not enough—he suggests that one needs to go deep into various pastoral villages to directly practice and research on livestock. Dawa describes that herbal medicines in general are more beneficial to Tibetan livestock because of the environs and changeable climate, but that more research needs to be done. He sees veterinary science as not only important fieldwork in Tibet but for the whole world because in his eyes, as long as animals are healthy, we human beings that depend on them will also be healthy.
