Animal Balance

To control and manage cat and dog populations that threaten native species in the environmentally sensitive Galapagos Islands, Animal Balance works with local authorities to develop and implement 100% humane programs, including high-volume spay/neuter clinics.

You’ll have to prove a million times over that you’re there for the right reason.
