The vet car in the safari park at Kolmården. I was riding the cable car and only had the rear end of the car in my direction. This car is a Volkswagen Transporter special designed for the zoo. At the rear section there are three folding doors, one on each side. The left cabinet has a fold-down workbench and houses all the small stuff, for example all drugs and medications. In the right cabinet there is no workbench, instead it houses larger stuff, for example oxygen gas cylinders. Between the two cabinets there is a large cargo space where you for example can transport sedated animals. It is reached from the back door, which actually has a peep-hole (in the middle of the logo) so you can see that the animals in there are still sedated before you open the door.
However, the design of the rear section is not new. It is copied quite straight away (but modernized) from the old vet car from 2001. That car was also a Volkswagen Transporter, built 1991 and bought by the zoo in 2001, and the rear section of that was a big wooden structure that was standing on the flatbed. The layout of the wooden structure was almost exactly the same as in the new car. When they had the chance to change the design completely with the new car they chose an almost identic design, which means that the layout of the rear section is a winning concept.
