The points you have raised were also raised by myself also. Why would you not test the animals which would be safer and less time consuming, rather than waiting for death. They should be saved and treated rather than being left to die. Sad.

I have my pacman frogs in QT still as its only been a month for 1 of them and 3 weeks for another. But their QT temperatures are sufficient. The Day time temp fluctuates between 79-81 and night drops to 74. They are provided a 12 hour photo period which is given by a UVB bulb.

I just found it so interesting that a large zoo would go about their practice that way. Its a published article as well, when my phone has charged I will share the link via tapatalk.
Some illnesses require special tests like DNA tests that can take up to two weeks for results others only take. About an hour or less. I hope that they are not doing as we assume with all species.
