00:00In Indonesia, maybe the mystic information is related to, for example, the white crocodile or the white snake, which is basically from a genetic point of view, it is a genetic difference.
00:31First, you need to know the condition of the animal, you need to know how to take care of it, and then you can buy it.
00:43Both the vet and the animal are taking care of the human health, but by treating the animal that can possibly infect the human.
01:01Introduce yourself
01:06My name is Muhammad Lutfi Akbar, usually called Dr. Akbar. I am a veterinarian or an animal doctor who dives exotic pets.
01:17When did you start diving exotic animals?
01:21When did I start diving exotic animals? It started when I was in college, maybe in 2014, when I started diving exotic pets.
01:32But for the first time, I've liked exotic pets for a long time, since I was in junior high school.
01:43Why did you start diving exotic pets?
01:45The reason is because I love exotic pets.
01:49Because, as far as I know, there are very few exotic pet doctors who want to treat exotic pets.
02:00So, I decided to become an exotic pet doctor.
02:05What is the difference between exotic and non-exotic?
02:08The meaning of exotic is different, it means that it is unusual to be kept by humans.
02:18Now, there are more and more pets that are not kept by humans.
02:24So, they are called exotic pets.
02:26How do you take care of your pets?
02:28I take care of reptiles, birds, chickens, and fish.
02:38At the moment, there are a lot of pets that are being kept by humans.
02:48How do you take care of your pets?
02:57What is zoonosis?
03:00Zoonosis is the transmission of diseases from animals to humans.
03:07So, there are infectious agents brought from animals that can be transmitted to humans.
03:14For example, salmonella, toxoplasma, and rabies.
03:21In addition to dogs, rabies is also found in many exotic animals.
03:27It can be found in musang and otter.
03:30In Indonesia, rabies is a result of natural capture.
03:34It is possible to be bitten, and it can be transmitted to humans.
03:41How do you take care of your pets?
03:45In this condition, with many exotic pets being kept,
03:52it is also possible that zoonosis can be transmitted to humans.
03:58So, the role of veterinarians here is to limit or reduce the possibility of zoonosis being transmitted.
04:06So, you can ask your pets' veterinarian before doing zoonosis.
04:14What are the most common reptiles that are kept by humans?
04:17For now, the most common reptile is the tortoise.
04:22There are also many reptiles that are kept by humans.
04:25For example, in reptiles, there are a lot of reptiles such as
04:30jaguars, iguanas, bearded dragons.
04:33There are also a lot of snakes.
04:35Snakes are not the same as before, but they still exist.
04:40There are also a lot of birds, such as Macaw,
04:45Kakatua, and Paru Bengkok.
04:48Nowadays, there are a lot of hobbyists who fly to free-fly,
04:53and then they are called to come back.
04:56There are still a lot of Ocean birds.
04:59So, that's more or less what is often brought to our clinic.
05:03What is the most common reptile that is kept by humans?
05:08This is a diamondback terrapin.
05:12It is almost the same as the Brazilian turtle.
05:17If we want to open the internal organ,
05:20we have to cut the lower carapace,
05:25open it, then turn it over,
05:28and then we cover it with an anti-water glue.
05:30What is this?
05:32This is actually a collection of urethra.
05:35So, basically, for the Sulcata turtle,
05:39it produces urethra.
05:41Urethra is the result of the filtration of the spleen,
05:44where the reptile produces calcium.
05:48So, the calcium is not all absorbed.
05:50There are calcium residues that accumulate in the bladder.
05:54This is the factor of the maintenance error.
05:56So, basically, for the Sulcata turtle,
05:58what is needed is a high serum.
06:00But mostly, for the Sulcata turtle,
06:03it feeds on vegetables,
06:05where the vegetables are high in calcium.
06:08So, the more calcium is eaten,
06:11the more urethra results.
06:13When there are more urethra,
06:15and it accumulates into one, it becomes a stone.
06:18This is called a hard stone.
06:20In Indonesia, maybe the mystic information
06:24is related to, for example, the white crocodile,
06:27or the white snake.
06:29Basically, from a genetic point of view,
06:31it is a genetic difference.
06:33For example, the white snake can be an albino.
06:36From the information I got,
06:39in the 1980s,
06:41there was a snake researcher from America to Indonesia.
06:44He already got the information
06:46that the white snake can be an albino.
06:48From the information I got,
06:50in the 1980s,
06:52there was a snake researcher from America to Indonesia.
06:55He already got the information
06:57that the white snake can be an albino.
06:59In Indonesia, there are still a lot of people
07:01who say, oh, that's the white snake.
07:03And now, there are a lot,
07:05and it has become a mob that is quite a lot.
07:07Basically, the types of snakes
07:09that are bred abroad
07:11are mostly from Indonesia or Asia.
07:13More precisely, like that.
07:15So, maybe that's what makes us
07:16an animal that we can develop first,
07:19because the idea is here,
07:21but developed by foreigners.
07:23Because maybe the information,
07:25there is a custom that says
07:27the white snake is waiting for this,
07:29or the white snake's nest,
07:31or the white baby's nest.
07:33Actually, it's a genetic difference
07:35that there is a theory
07:37that we can explain like that.
07:43The most important tip is
07:44that we have to have information
07:47about the animal that we want to keep first.
07:50For example,
07:52if we want to keep an albino,
07:54we have to know first
07:56where they come from,
07:58where they live,
08:00what their food menu looks like,
08:02what their natural behavior looks like,
08:04if they are active in the morning or at night,
08:08what their food menu looks like.
08:10We have to know first
08:12what their condition looks like.
08:14Then,
08:16by treatment and so on,
08:18we can buy them.
08:20So, we have to prepare first
08:22their equipment,
08:24their needs,
08:26then we can buy them.
08:28Life is related to each other,
08:30between humans and animals.
08:32In a way,
08:35we live side by side with animals.
08:38We take care of animals,
08:40stay healthy,
08:42stay good.
08:44Animals also play a big role
08:47in human health.
08:50So,
08:52doctors and animals
08:54take care of each other
08:56in terms of human health,
08:58but by treating animals
09:00that may infect humans.
09:02That's it.
