Aviagen’s export manager Kelly Wheeler has been elected vice president of the Animal Transportation Association (ATA), a non-profit international organization devoted to the safe handling and transportation of all animals worldwide.

Wheeler, whose election by ATA’s board of directors was at the association 36th annual conference, has been a member of ATA for 5 years and a director for the past 3. As VP, he will serve as part of ATA’s Executive Committee and will participate in managing ATA operations, budget and promotion.
