Animales SOS are working with humanitarian organisations to provide shelter for companion animals and are operating an outreach boat to deliver much needed feed and veterinary care to livestock stranded in remote areas cut off by the floods. The region’s farms are widely dispersed making them difficult to reach, even by boat.
Stranded livestock are being tended to and fed where possible, but it is proving difficult to reach all the affected animals in time.
Farmers who have managed to transport their cattle to Trinidad Port by boat are finding that there is a lack of feed and nowhere to house their animals.
