End bear bile farming, forever
Bear bile extraction is one of the worst forms of animal abuse in the world.
Right now, 147 bears in Vietnam are still trapped in tiny cages on bear bile farms. They are living a life of misery, hidden away in dark rooms.
We need your help. Donate today to help save the last bile bears.
These bears are deprived of natural sunlight, water, and are often fed rotten eggs and scraps. They often bash their heads on their cage and break their teeth from biting the metal bars. But YOU have the power to help save these thinking, feeling beings from a lifetime of cruelty.
Will you help protect the last 147 bile bears and bring the illegal bile trade in Vietnam to an end?

Na was abused for more than 20 years
Na was trapped in a tiny, metal cage with barely any sunlight or fresh air for over two decades. She couldn’t escape from having large needles repeatedly plunged into her abdomen to extract her bile.
Alone, terrified and forgotten. Her spirit was completely broken. Broken teeth, lost fur, her body was on the brink of giving up from the abuse until animal lovers like YOU stepped in and changed her story forever.
Don’t let another bear be left behind
Bear bile farming is illegal in Vietnam. But loopholes in the law allow owners to keep bears like Na as so‑called “pets”. In reality, many bears still suffer illegal bile extraction.
Right now, your donation could help save them from their dark, cold cages.
