Protestors outraged by alleged animal killing and cruelty at the hand of Manatee County Animal Services picketed Jan. 13 outside Beach Veterinary Clinic, 4404 124th St. W., Cortez. Dr. Luke Berglund, clinic owner and the county’s animal services medical director, said he’s proud of the county’s record of saving animals taken in at animal services during the past five years. Berglund contracts his services — some of which are performed at his clinic — to the MCAS. Islander Photo: Kathy Prucnell
