Since 2005 we have been working to end this practice together with governments, organisations, and communities.
With your help, we are very close to achieving it. Join our mission and help us end the bear bile trade.

Each year, hundreds of whales are killed in the Faroe Islands in a hunt that continues to be defended as “tradition”.
Chased and cornered by speedboats, their slaughter is still defended as “tradition”.
We urge the Prime Minister to ban dolphin and whale hunts by law.

Another day, another big cat to celebrate!
Did you know that cougars are excellent jumpers - and can leap 13 metres in one bound.
ALT Alfa is one of two rescued puma cubs in the area of Goiás, Brazil. In early 2026, Alfa took a decisive step toward freedom when she was transferred to the pre-release enclosure, where she is now in the final stage of her preparation to return to the wild.

1. We investigate trafficking networks through undercover operations that lead to arrests and rescues.
2. We rescue pangolins before they are sold, providing medical care and safe shelters.
3. We release them once they are strong enough, into protected areas, and monitor their adaptation to keep them safe from poachers.

Sea turtles are extraordinary travellers. They use the Earth’s magnetic field to navigate and return to the beaches where they were born to lay their eggs.
These journeys help support healthy marine and coastal ecosystems. But not all tourist experiences reflect that reality.
