DESPITE THE health crisis brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic, the Office of City Veterinarian (OCVET) continues with the strict inspection of livestock entering Zamboanga City to ensure the animals do not carry diseases or viruses.

Photos released by Dr. Arnedo Agbayani, head of the OCVET’s Animal Health Division show OCVET personnel working hard despite the Covid-19 pandemic.

And OCVET, under Dr Mario Arriola, also lauded the support of the City Environment and Natural Resources Office, the Zamboanga State College of Marine Sciences and Technology, the Office of the Provincial Veterinarian in Zamboanga del Sur and Sinunuc Barangay Chairwoman Pilarica Ledesma in the recent recovery of sea turtles.
