Welcome to the CattleCal podcast! In the career call of the month, Brooke Latack and I called Dr. Zachary Carlson. Dr. Carlson is an Assistant Professor/Extension Beef Cattle Specialist. Zac talked about his career, going from his decision to go to Animal Science, undergrad, and graduate school. Some of the mentorship he received in his career, graduate school, and his current job in academia. It was a very nice call, and we hope you enjoy it!!

Dr. Carlson's TopTIp was the book: "The Fire of Life: An Introduction to Animal Energetics" by Max Kleiber
