Jordan

In Jordan many working animals live in rural areas ploughing fields and transporting goods.

SPANA's two mobile clinics travel to villages every day, covering thousands of kilometers every year. Animals in need of more specialised care or hospitalisation are brought to one of our two centres.

SPANA’s education centre hosts a series of Animal Clubs which help children understand the important role animals play in our lives.

Keeping Jordan’s ‘tractors’ healthy

Many of Jordan’s rural communities are too poor to buy tractors to plough and harvest their crops. Instead, they rely on real horsepower, just as their ancestors have done for thousands of years. As a result, our vets treat a lot of working animals with injuries caused by working out in the fields.
