Born in 2002, Kassandra spent ten years in a tiny cage outside a restaurant in Kosovo. Thankfully, we rescued her in March of 2013 and brought her to BEAR SANCTUARY Prishtina. 🌳 Since her arrival at the sanctuary, Kassandra has blossomed both mentally and physically. ✨🐻

Great news! Fashion giant Kering is closing the last loopholes to completely ban angora and rabbit fur across production ❤️ This means iconic fashion houses like Gucci and Balenciaga are ALL on board for a future where we can #WearItKind

Six months ago we rescued the last restaurant bear in Albania. Since then, he has made incredible progress at his new, species-appropriate home! Watch Bear Mark's journey to freedom to see how he's getting on, but be aware, it's a tear-jerker! 🐻❤️ #WednesdayThought

Do you remember the story of Charly 🐯 & Fangio🐯? After years of mistreatment at an illegal breeding farm in Argentina, the two Bengal tigers were rescued and brought to Al Ma’wa for Nature and Wildlife. Fortunately today, the two tigers are at the peak of comfort and calm 🍀

RIP beautiful polar fox Samara 🖤🦊 After being rescued from a Polish fur farm in November last year, we noticed that years in a tiny cage had caused Samra to suffer from significant health conditions. Recently, her health deteriorated and no medication could relieve her pain.

In November 2021, after Ukrainian law banned the keeping of bears near restaurants, we rescued bear Vova from his concrete cage. Since then, his progress has been remarkable. He has embraced activities like swimming and loves indulging in his favourite treats, peanuts. 🥜
