Following the success of our clinic in the village of Sarteneja in July 2015, we decided to concentrate our efforts in January 2016 in this charming community, known in many tourist guides as the ‘’best kept secret of Belize’’. A team of five veterinarians, including one from France, two animal health technicians, 3 assistants, and 2 veterinary medicine students participated in their first humanitarian trip and treated over 150 animals in a few days. During this clinic, 73 animals were sterilized and received a new collar. We hope that they live long and healthy lives! We will be returning to Sarteneja in January 2017.
