Marcus Taylor talks to Paddy Gower on RNZ

Marcus Taylor graduated from Massey University 11 years ago - his life as a vet has been pretty action packed since then. 

He's about to move from Christchurch to Finland for a year, along the way he's worked in  England, Newfoundland and carried out an animal-health research project in the Middle East.

Marcus has a YouTube channel, Lord of the Vets and his latest venture is a memoir :  The Ones that Bit Me, camels, cows and other young-vet stories.

This includes looking after a cow with ketosis, an arthritic pet lamb, nursing birds back to health and having to tell pet owners that their domestic animals are not long for this world.

Marcus has also had a personal battle back from severe injury.
