Mamadou Diallo grew up tending cattle in the West African country of Mali. Today he is a staff veterinarian at a large Dane County dairy. The deep knowledge that comes from his cultural roots combined with formal veterinary training gives Mamadou a unique perspective on animal care and on life in his new home in America’s Dairyland.
