The first steps of Medicine Veterinary in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (1904-1910)
Abstract
The official veterinary service in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria was established between 1904 and 1910. In its beginnings, the local authority was forced to improvise and suffered from lack of experience, in an effort to procure veterinary teaching positions and most importantly, a veterinary service to cover the needs across its territory. This article analyses the process from its early days characterised by the implementation of legislation and a strong desire to put in place disease prevention strategies. Attitudes were markedly tainted by the reformist spirit that characterised the beginning of the century in the Canarian Archipelago.Downloads
