exotic animal vet
Uncommon creature physician
A veterinarian who specializes in treating animals outside the typical cats-and-dogs practice—reptiles, birds, small mammals like ferrets and rabbits, and sometimes zoo animals or wildlife.
The term distinguishes these practitioners from conventional small-animal vets: We had to find an exotic animal vet when our iguana stopped eating.
