Vicente Fuentealba holds a sign that reads in Spanish 'President, don't let us down. Get the animals out of Chaiten!,' referring the erupting Chaiten volcano, at a protest outside La Moneda presidential palace in Santiago, Monday, May 12, 2008. An estimated 450 dogs and 350 cats were left behind when Chaiten village residents were evacuated after the initial May 2 eruption, the volcano's first in thousands of years.
