Volunteers operate a small animal mobile surgery unit, and others go into the field to provide care to farm animals
At the present, Project Samana visits the northern pennisula of the Dominican Republic in June and in November. In 2015, a smaller trip has been added in September. Each time, volunteers operate a small animal mobile surgery unit, and others go into the field to provide care to farm animals. Frequently, Project Samana arranges for Board Certified veterinary specialists lecture at UNPHU – a veterinary school located in Santo Domingo. Volnteers for Project Mazunte visit the western coast of Mexico in January each year to spay and neuter local dogs in an effort to protect Riddley Turtle hatchlings. They ocassionally have the opportunity to work directly with turtles.
