Vet med is like this because they don't really make specialized equipment for every animal. Was on a tour behind the scenes at a zoo and they used a traffic cone to administer anesthesia to a seal.

They don't make masks for anything besides dogs and cats and making tiny masks and putting them on small animals would be incredibly difficult.
