KIRIBATI: Surgeon calls for action over stray dogs
Updated
The doctor treating a i-Kiribati boy who was mauled by a pack of dogs last month has called on local councils to do more about stray dogs on Tarawa. Dr Rajiv Gupta, Chief Consultant Surgeon to the Kiribati Ministry of Health, says the attack on seven year old Kautabea Bungea, which left him with no ears and severe lacerations, was a consequence of the lack of strict regulation of stray dogs. He says he fears for other local children after what happened to Kautabea.
