Spring is here, and in Vietnam that means the confiscation of terrified cubs from the illegal bear farming industry. Safe, but by no means out of the woods, please welcome our two new family members — pint-sized Milo and Sean, teeny 2.5kgs cubs, missing mum and fighting to survive. Congratulations to Tuan, Kirsty and our Vietnam team for working so closely with the authorities to rescue these youngsters and give them the chance of a life far away from the farms.

Vet Kirsty says it all when she comments: “It’s a complete privilege to be involved in their care, but please spare a thought for their mother who was most likely killed, and for the fact that only two weeks ago all three would have been happily snuggled up together in a forest den before their lives were suddenly turned upside down.”
