But we lead off this week’s One Health roundup with a look at the healing powers of venom, which have led to drugs used to treat high blood pressure, diabetes, and many other diseases and conditions.

Other stories include a look at the spreading rabies outbreak in New Mexico, how equine therapy is helping veterans cope with their war injuries, the latest in animal research, and more.

Thanks for reading, and have a happy and healthy weekend!
