Bears are still kept in appalling conditions. Their owners often use them for profit. Whether for bile extraction or as tourist attractions – hundreds of bears are exploited and tortured to make money.
our Mission
FOUR PAWS rescues bears suffering in captivity and protects them by providing lifelong species-appropriate care at our sanctuaries. We are committed to ending their suffering through public awareness campaigns, working to change laws around their keeping and advocating for their welfare worldwide.
