For those who are shocked about the neglect of animals, this is Gambia. An extremely poor country. Per capita spending on human health care is $41 a year. Taking an animal to a vet may cost a family the equivalent of their food budget for a week even with low vet costs. I’ve worked in Third World countries where families take turns eating each day. I have also seen what happens to dogs. Spaying and neutering is rare. I had some friends who ran a free clinic to spay and neuter dogs in Guatemala. How did most towns handle strays? They would periodically round them up and kill them. There is such a great need if animal lovers in this country would help. Look it up. Lots of organizations around the world. For the price of a can of dog food a week you can do amazing things. Hope the mods don’t pull this for making a plug.

On a happier???? side. Can you imagine a video by Dr. Y removing mango worms from a dog like this?
