Animals Asia rescued seven more moon bears from bile farms in Vietnam’s Quang Ninh province yesterday (Tuesday September 22).
The bears are from two locations in the province, where they have suffered years being held captive in small cages with regular painful bile extractions.
This represents a huge breakthrough for the team and for the local authorities who have kept pushing for the release of these bears. They will join 132 bears who already live in the beautiful surroundings of Tam Dao national park, at our Vietnam sanctuary.
Today’s rescue means just nine bears remain in Quang Ninh – and brings to 24 the total number of bears rescued from the province so far this year.
