The internship- training was well done in accomplishing the objectives through the activities done by the student during the internship training as follows, • Vaccination and treatment of animals against various conditions • Deworming cattle • Livestock distribution to the beneficiaries • Fish pond inspection • Meat inspection. During the training skills gained were vaccination deworming, communication skills, other skills like wound treatment and castration.
