Best camera
The waiting-room camera does the most work because it gives the clearest silhouette and body comparison on uncertain admits.

Animal Hospital CCTV anomalies: camera-only tells and waiting-room checks
Fast answer: CCTV anomalies are the tells that only become clear on a camera feed. Start with the waiting-room camera on close patients, look for black eyes, void bodies, wrong ears, stretched silhouettes, and behavior that only appears after a few seconds, then reject if the monitor gives a clear fail.
This page is for the player who already knows the desk and photo steps, but still loses runs to the camera layer. The usual mistake is checking CCTV too fast or trusting a mostly clean live patient after the monitor has already broken the disguise.
Biggest mistake
Players treat CCTV like a one-second confirmation instead of letting the feed breathe long enough to reveal behavior or shape problems.
Most dangerous habit
Trusting a mostly clean desk read too much and using the camera only after the route is already under pressure.
Camera-Only Checklist
Check these tells before you admit a close patient
Black or censored eyes
If the face looked close at the desk but the monitor hides or corrupts the eyes, treat the camera read as the stronger signal.
Void or distorted body
A patient can keep a normal desk pose while the CCTV feed exposes a missing, stretched, or wrong body shape.
Wrong ears or outline
The waiting-room angle is useful because the ears and top outline are easier to compare than in a rushed window glance.
Behavior that needs time
Camera-only twitching and stare behavior are easy to miss if you close the monitor after one frame.

How to use CCTV
Best next page when the real issue is surveillance rhythm and not just the anomaly list itself.
Anomalies hub
Open this if you want the full desk, photo, and CCTV stack rather than only the surveillance layer.
Static Photo
Open this when the camera question is really part of a bigger desk-photo-camera decision chain.
Office Room
Open this if CCTV only starts making sense to you once it is tied back to the room and route that support it.
