Owner’s blog:
Hi all! I am in need of a logo for the ROUS Foundation for Capybara Veterinary Medicine. As some of you may know, the Foundation was started after Caplin Rous died unexpectedly on January 4th, 2011, a day that will burn forever in my heart.
After Caplin’s death I wanted to do something to try to prevent such tragedies from happening again. The first step toward that is knowledge and it turns out there is surprisingly little knowledge about capybara veterinary care, diseases and environmental susceptibilities. I started the ROUS Foundation in conjunction with Texas A&M University College of Veterinary Medicine to develop a knowledge center of capybara. It has taken a while to get things going but soon everything should be in place.
However, as everyone knows, we can’t have a Foundation without a logo! That’s where you come in. Create your own version of a ROUS Foundation logo and email it me using the “contact” tab at the top of this page. I will put all the entries that I receive before June 4th up here and then open voting to the public. Get your creative hats on!
