The Large Animal Emergency Rescue Training Program is the first of its kind in Illinois, and students are learning how first responders will handle an emergency.
Also, they are learning how first responders and veterinarians can work hand in hand during an emergency.
The training includes demonstrations on how the various emergency equipment works, and how it may affect an animal in an emergency situation.
