Vet Adventures Peru (2010– ) Online

Luke is off to one of the most remote cities in the world as he flies into Iquitos, situated in the heart of the Amazonian rain-forest. His journey starts above a bustling meat market in the centre of town, where a dog clinic is already underway by a group of volunteer vets from his own charity. Always one to get his hands dirty, he is soon on the streets catching a dog that is in urgent need of attention. Jumping on the back of a motorbike-taxi he heads to the outskirts of town to see one of the world's most enigmatic and also highly endangered creatures, the Amazonian manatee. Luke is confronted by an epic four-hour surgery on a female dog, before setting off down the majestic Amazon river where he is in his element treating (and fighting) monkeys, macaws, buffaloes and disgusting tropical maggots.
