Here are some images from our trip to beautiful Ometepe Island in Lago Cocibolca (Lake Nicaragua).  Dr. Warbington is volunteering his services as part of a veterinary brigade based out of Oregon State University.  He is treating all manner of animals brought in from the countryside for this week-long clinic, as well as teaching and supervising veterinary students as they gain field experience.  The makeshift clinic is set up once a year at the beautiful Hacienda Merida.
During the last day on the island, the Drs. & vet students present a public health seminar and Q & A for the locals, and distribute information and medicines to help keep them and their animals healthy after we're gone.

This dog probably was treated at clinic last year.  Back for a checkup.
Pretty foal waiting for a wellness exam.
This cute, shaggy dog just hangs out.  The annual clinic is the social event of the year for the island dogs!
So many skinny animals; it's gratifying to see them being brought in (sometimes from miles away, on foot, through the jungle) for treatment.
This horse arrived in pretty good shape.
