Animals Asia has rescued over 600 bears from extreme cruelty. But every rescue is entirely dependent on supporters around the globe like @rickygervais who stand up for the bears when they need help. Thank you Ricky, and everyone around the world who makes new lives possible.

On bile farms, bears spend a lifetime trapped in a cage, sitting on cold iron bars, eating only rice gruel. But in sanctuary, bears like Amara and Milagro are free to choose how to spend their days within a large outdoor enclosure full of trees, pools and grass. #MoonBearMonday

In 2004, a tiny cub was poached and put on a bear bile farm. This morning she was still there. Still alone. Still scared. But now the cage that would have been her coffin is empty and Sky's new life has begun. Thank you all for saving Sky. DONATE:

Success! The #MoonBearRescue team are safe at the hotel & the bears enjoyed a dinner of delicious fuit&veg. Scooby is completely calm and relished every bite. Lily and Phuong are more wary so will be given quiet space to reduce stress. 3 more days to go. Now is time to rest.

On arrival, rescued bears are malnourished or overweight and lacking muscle from a lifetime of inactivity. But with time, love, a healthy lifestyle and the right diet, then like Ki in this video, they can climb, wrestle and play just as they would in the wild. #MoonBearMonday

She's home! After 15 years of cruelty, sun bear Aurora is finally safe in our sanctuary. Here she will be loved, cared for and able to be a real bear for the rest of her life. Today the cruelty ended <3 ๐Ÿฅ DONATE:

These two gentle souls suffered extreme cruelty alone for reasons they could never possibly understand. But now Bill and Mityan have each other. Pain is behind them, and they know exactly how much they mean to each other. Happy #MoonBearMonday everyone x

We are heartbroken as moon bear Maggie, who we've known since she was a cub, succumbs to illness after nearly a decade in sanctuary. Now she sleeps forever under the stars where she always should have been. Goodbye, Maggie.
