Published to tie in with the BBC1 series, the book features Trude and Steve as they join vets working with large game in Africa. The text draws on their diaries alongside separate sections on each of the animals they encounter, including rhinos, elephants and lions, and the diseases inherent in this environment. With colour photographs.

In "Vets in the Wild", a huge, converted Land Rover becomes home for an adventure that takes experienced vets Steve Leonard and Trude Mostue across Africa to meet some of the rarest and most fascinating creatures in the animal kingdom. In this unfamiliar environment they encounter many difficult and dangerous situations involving much larger and fiercer animals than they are used to at home. From castrating a camel to catching a giraffe, the vets are constantly on the go. Will Steve succeed in wrestling a crocodile into submission? How does Trude cope when charged by a determined young rhino? "Vets in the Wild" is the exciting behind-the-scences diary of their African adventure, originally seen on BBC television.

Trude Mostue and Steve Leonard first rose to fame in the popular BBC series Vets' School. They both featured in the follow up Vets in Practice and Trude has a slot on Live and Kicking and heads Vets to the Rescue. Steve Leonard presents the BBC's Ultimate Killers and is the author of Boxtree's accompanying book.
