#04 - The power of the gut microbiome of birds - Dr. Guillermo Tellez-Isaias

Animals strongly rely on their microbiome, which mainly consists of bacteria, for digestion. Therefore, it plays a significant role in the regulation of their physiology and in the behavior of their gastrointestinal tract – in other words, in their overall health. That makes it essential for us to take good care of gut microbiota if we are to maintain the well-being of our animals. In this episode, Dr. Tellez-Isaias discusses the importance of the gastrointestinal tract, going into the symbiotic relationship between animals and the bacteria that reside within them.
