Animal Lore raises passively along with Taming and Veterinary. Skill gain
from direct use has been limited with the implementation of publish 16 since
you can only successfully use it on tamed creatures (your own as well as other
peoples') until you reach 100.0 skill.
The most effective way to gain is by letting it raise during your Veterinary
practice.
While applying bandages to your pet, watch out for a passive animal lore
gain. As soon as it occurs, lock your Veterinary skill, stay in the spot and
keep applying bandages. Eventually you will stop gaining, then unlock
your Veterinary skill, change location and keep practicing. Movement seems to
influence your skill gain positively.
If you follow this advice, you will raise both your Veterinary and Animal
Lore skills quickly and efficiently, even beyond Grandmaster level.
