One of the first modern veterinarians, Dr. Claude Bourgelat, was originally a barrister (lawyer) who observed rinderpest decimating the livestock of France. He left his law practice and devoted his time to developing a cure for rinderpest, which eventually led him to found the first modern school of veterinary medicine in Lyon, France. He was self-taught from human anatomy and medical books as well as any publications on the diseases of animals.

What did burrin turnbulle do to become the very first African American veterinarian?

To the best of my ability to research, "Burrin Turnbulle" is a fictitious name that was plastered across the Answers website as being the first female black veterinarian in the United States. However, this is incorrect information - the first African-American female veterinarian was Dr. Alfreda J Webb, a graduate of Tuskegee University in 1949. I have not been able to figure out who "Burrin Turnbulle" was, or if this person even existed. To answer the question posted, "Burrin Turnbulle" did nothing to become the very first African American veterinarian because he (or she) was not a veterinarian and may not actually have existed.
