Research summary

Mark Flint's research focuses on the health, disease, and welfare of wildlife, especially marine and aquatic species like sea turtles, sirenians (manatees and dugongs), and sea snakes, as well as some terrestrial and mammalian species such as mule deer, cheetahs, and mountain gorillas. Work often combines veterinary diagnostics (blood chemistry, parasitology, pathology) with environmental exposure assessment to understand how pollution, disease, and human activity affect wildlife populations. This research area blends veterinary science, wildlife biology, and environmental toxicology to inform conservation and animal welfare practices.
