Nobody told the burros, mules and horses of Mexico about the country's recent troubles. Although hay and food has become harder to buy for most families, necessity dictates that these people and their animals keep working to survive. This spring, HSVMA Field Services spent two weeks in central Mexico, providing free veterinary care in needy, isolated communities that operate largely on traditional agriculture. CSU veterinary student Flower Marsh details her experience here»

Although travel was involved, "summer vacation" took on a different meaning for Chumkee Aziz, a veterinary student at Tufts, this year. Thanks to training grants from her school and Morris Animal Foundation, she was given the unique opportunity to conduct research in Kathmandu, Nepal, studying humane dog population control in a country with devastating dog overpopulation problems and high human rabies incidences.
