If a crisis in equine welfare is to be averted, then a paradigm shift in attitudes to anthelmintic use is required - we've known this for a long time. How can we, as vets, influence the behaviour change required? This talk will summarise the latest evidence and inspire and empower us to all be part of the solution.
