Vet Gate Day

The veterinary gates between foot-and-mouth disease zones are where every Motswana has sat in a car while officials check, spray, and question. The spray, the forms, the wait. Botswana's beef is world-class because of these gates, and every driver has a story about the time they forgot you cannot move biltong across zones. The BMC does not play and the vet gates are why.

Animals of Monaco Day

You encounter Mediterranean seabirds like the yellow-legged gull and occasional monk seals in Monaco's waters. You find that small dog breeds, cats, and ornamental fish are the typical pets kept by Monégasque residents. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
