Peru: DOG

In Peru, we caught this dog. It wouldn't go away and was scaring away wildlife so we decided to take care of it for the day so that it could be sent to the closest town (instead of the alternative: the manager throwing it into the river tied to a big rock).










Saved that dogs life. Even though it was a pain in the ass...

I saw some pretty cool butterflies in Peru, too. Below, the FFT Insect corrdinator, Ashely, holding a butterfly of the Ithominae family. They have clear wings.
