The Global Alliance for Animals and People The GAAP is here to create better lives for animals, people, and the environment in Latin America.

The Global Alliance for Animals and People (the GAAP) is formed by people and partners across the globe that recognize the importance of maintaining support to people and their animals in Latin America. The GAAP envisions a Latin America where people live in harmony with animals and the environment; where people recognize the cultural, emotional and economic value that they provide us with, so that they manage them in ways that maintain their states of health, sustainability and functionality.

Building connections that change lives 🐾🇨🇷

In April, Elena and Guillermo joined their first spay/neuter campaign in Turrialba, Costa Rica. Offering a helping hand to a local vet team, the campaign helped to spay and neuter around 50 dogs and cats.
It was an inspiring experience: pet owners showed genuine dedication to their animals’ well being.
A huge thank you to .cr for organizing the campaign and for their ongoing commitment to animal welfare in the community.
Together, we keep building a healthier, more compassionate world! 🌎🐶🐱


Conexiones que transforman vidas 🐾🇨🇷

En abril, Elena y Guillermo participaron en su primera campaña de esterilización en Turrialba, Costa Rica, donde, junto a un equipo veterinario y de apoyo excepcional, colaboraron en la esterilización de aproximadamente 50 perros y gatos.
Fue una experiencia profundamente inspiradora: los tutores demostraron un gran compromiso con el bienestar de sus animales.
Un enorme agradecimiento a .cr por organizar esta campaña y por su constante trabajo en favor del bienestar animal en la comunidad.
¡Juntos, seguimos construyendo un mundo más saludable y compasivo! 🌎🐶🐱

¿Sabías qué...? (Dato curioso)

🐾 ¿Sabías que el monito del monte es uno de los cuatro marsupiales nativos de Chile?
Aunque pesa menos de 30 gramos, cumple un rol clave en el ecosistema: ¡dispersa semillas de plantas nativas!

Lamentablemente, está amenazado por la destrucción de hábitat y la presencia de gatos sin supervisión.
👉 Cuidar la fauna nativa también es parte de la tenencia responsable.

____________________________

🐾 Did you know the “monito del monte” is one of just four marsupials native to Chile?

Weighing less than 30 grams, it plays a key ecological role by dispersing native plant seeds!

Sadly, habitat loss and unsupervised cats are major threats to its survival.
👉 Protecting native species is also part of responsible pet ownership.

🐶🌿 Free-Roaming Dogs & Wildlife: A Dangerous Combination

At The GAAP, we work to protect both companion animals and wildlife. Did you know that unsupervised dogs pose a serious risk to native species? 😔 Even without intending harm, they chase, hunt, or spread diseases to vulnerable animals like foxes, deer (like the tiny pudu in Chile), and shorebirds.

🌍 How can you help?

✅ Keep your dog in a secure, comfortable area.
✅ Always use a leash in natural spaces.
✅ Make sure your pets are up-to-date with their vaccinations to prevent spreading diseases from companion animals to wildlife and even to humans.

Small actions make a big difference in protecting biodiversity! 🐾💚


🐶🌿 Perros sueltos y fauna silvestre: una combinación peligrosa

En The GAAP, trabajamos para proteger tanto a los animales de compañía como a la vida silvestre. ¿Sabías que los perros sin supervisión representan un gran riesgo para las especies nativas? 😔 Aunque no lo hagan con mala intención, muchos persiguen, cazan o transmiten enfermedades a animales vulnerables como zorros, huemules y aves playeras.

🌍 ¿Cómo podemos ayudar?

✅ Mantén a tu perro en un espacio seguro.
✅ Usa correa en paseos, especialmente en zonas naturales.
✅ Evita que deambule sin supervisión.

¡Pequeñas acciones generan un gran impacto en la conservación! 🐾💚

🌍 One Health: The Connection Between People, Animals, & the Environment!
At The GAAP, we embrace the One Health approach, which recognizes that the health of humans, animals, and the environment is deeply interconnected. 🐾💚

This means:
✅ Healthy pets contribute to healthy families.
✅ Healthy families contribute to healthier ecosystems.
✅ And when ecosystems are healthy, both animals and humans thrive!
Together, we can create a world where all living beings flourish—through education, compassion, and responsible actions! 🌱✨

At The GAAP we believe in taking a holistic approach to protecting the incredible wildlife of our planet - researching wildlife and their habitats, creating community-based solutions, educating the next generation, and offering people the opportunity to connect with and build a passion for nature and all its creatures.


🌍 One Health: ¡La conexión entre las personas, los animales y el medio ambiente!
En The GAAP, adoptamos el enfoque One Health, que reconoce que la salud de los humanos, los animales y el medio ambiente están profundamente interconectadas. 🐾💚

Esto significa:
✅ Los animales saludables contribuyen a familias saludables.
✅ Las familias saludables contribuyen a ecosistemas más saludables.
✅ ¡Y cuando los ecosistemas están saludables, tanto los animales como los humanos prosperan!

Juntos, podemos crear un mundo donde todos los seres vivos florezcan, ¡a través de la educación, la compasión y las acciones responsables! 🌱✨

To this group embarking on such a meaningful journey, have a safe trip to Long Lac, First Nations 58. The journey is approximately 11 hours to Northern Ontario. To bring veterinary care to a remote community takes work. One van is strictly supplies, the other is our team!
Bon voyage, and as always we look forward to a productive outcome vaccinating, and controlling the pet population.

Keep Your Cats Safe & Protect Wildlife 🌿🦜

As spring approaches in the northern hemisphere, we can expect warmer weather and longer days—but it also means nesting season for birds and higher risks for outdoor cats!
🌎 Why keep cats indoors?
🔹 Birds are nesting, making them especially vulnerable during this time. Cats are natural hunters, and even well-fed cats will instinctively chase and catch birds, impacting local wildlife populations.
🔹 Health risks for cats – Warmer weather means cats are more likely to roam, increasing their chances of encountering diseases, parasites, and even wild animals.

✅ If your cat does go outside, make sure they have:
✔ Updated vaccinations 💉
✔ Regular parasite prevention 🐛
✔ Safe, supervised outdoor spaces 🌿
By keeping our feline friends indoors or taking precautions, we can protect their health and help preserve biodiversity in our ecosystems. Let's care for our pets responsibly and be part of the solution! 💚🐾


______________________________________
Mantén a tus gatos seguros y protege la fauna silvestre 🌿🦜

Con la llegada de la primavera en el hemisferio norte, podemos esperar un clima más cálido y días más largos, pero también significa la temporada de anidación de aves y mayores riesgos para los gatos que viven al aire libre.
🌎 ¿Por qué mantener a los gatos dentro de casa?
🔹 Las aves están anidando, lo que las hace especialmente vulnerables durante esta época. Los gatos son cazadores natos, e incluso los gatos bien alimentados las persiguen y atrapan instintivamente, lo que afecta a las poblaciones locales de fauna silvestre.
🔹 Riesgos para la salud de los gatos: El clima más cálido significa que los gatos son más propensos a deambular, lo que aumenta sus probabilidades de contraer enfermedades, parásitos e incluso animales salvajes.

✅ Si tu gato sale al exterior, asegúrate de que tenga:
✔ Vacunas al día 💉
✔ Prevención de parásitos 🐛
✔ Espacios exteriores seguros y supervisados ​​🌿
Al mantener a nuestros amigos felinos dentro de casa o tomar precauciones, podemos proteger su salud y ayudar a preservar la biodiversidad en nuestros ecosistemas. ¡Cuidemos a nuestras mascotas responsablemente y seamos parte de la solución! 💚🐾
