Veterinarians play an essential role in Sri Lanka’s agricultural and healthcare systems, contributing not only to the welfare of animals but also to public health and food security. As the world prepares to celebrate World Veterinary Day on April 26, 2025, under the theme "Animal Health Takes a Team," it is an opportune moment to recognize the collaborative efforts of veterinary professionals in Sri Lanka and their critical contributions to animal health, public health, animal welfare and food security.
