Asiatic black bears

Seven more bears are free at last

Seven captive bears were rescued from a bear bile farm in Phúc Thọ, a rural district of Hanoi in Vietnam. Our vision is for bears to be respected, protected by law and free from exploitation.

Proving we can deliver animal protection all over the world.

Campaign success stories

Our success stories help us inform governments around the world how to better protect animals – for example by proving that vaccinating dogs on a mass scale is the only way to combat rabies.

And they tell of the very real benefits to animals' lives – like the bears that are now living peacefully in sanctuaries after being rescued from cruelty. 

Thanks to the help and dedication of our supporters, World Animal Protection has many success stories that show how we change animals' lives for the better.

Success for penguins!
