The Vet from the Urban Jungle tells the story of the dedication that a talented team of professionals has that is needed to promote and protect the human-animal bond even in the most dangerous circumstances.

Within the pages of The Vet from the Urban Jungle lies the passion and drama of the force that gives the lives of the people who work in the veterinary profession purpose: promoting and preserving the human-animal bond. This book is a must read for anyone who loves animals—not just pets, but exotic animals and wildlife—and is driven by stories of love, dedication, bravery, and the deep connections between humans and the creatures that depend on them.

Dr. Douglas Mader blends this journalistic memoir with the moment to moment intensity of a medical drama. Spanning one fast-paced year in Dr. Mader’s life, the storyline pulls readers into the daily chaos of operating an inner-city veterinary hospital in the underbelly of Los Angeles.

Within the walls of the frenetic Noah’s Ark Veterinary Hospital, readers encounter unforgettable characters—from beloved household pets to crazy exotic animals and regular pet owners to Hollywood megastars. Regardless of the situation, The Vet from the Urban Jungle explores the timeless power of the human-animal bond.
