“We are dedicated to the care of animals in captivity and the wild. We've rescued them off the beach and returned them to the sea. We work with them in captivity, nurse and nurture them, and protect them in the wild. This is our job. It's what we do.”
Lanny H. Cornell, D.V.M.
President of Pacific Research Laboratories, Inc. and pioneer of preventive care for cetaceans in captivity, Dr. Cornell's work is renowned throughout the world. Since 1964, he has privately practiced equine and marine mammal medicine and surgery and is a consultant for many aquatic parks and zoos.
About Us
Over the past quarter century, the zoological community has undergone immeasurable change; the modernization of zoos has resulted in exhibitry, conservation, research, and reproductive successes originally thought to be impossible to achieve.
We at Pacific Research Laboratories, Inc. are proud to have been a part of these changes.
Vitamin Products
Since 1965, our reproductive and nutritional programs have aided in the successful breeding and maintenance of animals in aquatic parks and zoos alike. Our Sea Tabs®, Zoovite®, and Equivite® vitamins have consistently led the way in meeting the animal world's nutritional needs.
- Sea Tabs® for a variety of marine animals
(dolphins, whales, pinnipeds, birds, turtles, fish, sharks, etc.) - Zoovite® for exotic terrestrial animals and birds
- Equivite® vitamins for horses and other domestic large animals
Pacific Research Laboratories, Inc., developed and implemented the first of our modern nutritional and animal husbandry programs in 1965. Today, as a result of our pioneering efforts, our vitamins and comparable husbandry programs are used by major zoos and aquaria throughout the world, in countries as far-ranging as Germany, Australia and Russia.
