Yesterday, the 9th of December was the International Day of Veterinary Medicine. In today's Falklands Radio News we speak with the team at the Veterinary Clinic about the work they do, looking after pets, livestock and the wildlife of the Falkland Islands. Don't forget to tune in from 12:15!
A photo of the Falkland Islands Veterinary Clinic in Stanley. It is a dark wooden clad building, with green "wrinkly tin" roofing. At the front there is a steep ramp which goes into the vestibule area, which is clad with a lighter coloured (almost red) wood. Superimposed on the top left is the words "international day of veterinary medicine"
