Animals in Disaster

Animals in Disaster

Our response to devastating flood in Bara and Parsa District of Nepal
In April 2019, a massive storm wreaked havoc on the southern districts of Bara and Parsa, Nepal. With a rising death toll surpassing 50 and hundreds injured, the human cost of the disaster was immense. However, amidst the tragedy, countless animals were left astray, suffering injuries, displacement, and starvation.

We refused to stand by as animals perished. Our team of dedicated veterinarians, technicians, and support staff mobilized so quickly, reaching the affected areas within days. We deployed to villages like Bharwaliya, Bhaluwahi, Benauli, Telgain, Purainya, Hardiya, Kalaiya, and Chainpur, ground zero for the animal crisis. Our Emergency response for the disaster situation was, with grace we were able to treat over 50 injured animals, providing them with critical medical care and distribute food, salt and other medications which amounting to $10,000 for all sick and injured animals. Our efforts were conducted in close collaboration with the Livestock Department of the Government of Nepal, fostering a unified response with the government body. We will continue to work tirelessly to alleviate animal suffering in the wake of natural disasters.
