Steel Frames Direct Limited (NZ) is proud to be a sponsor of Animals Asia. From every frame kit we manufacture a percentage of any profit earned is allocated to this great cause.
Animals Asia is devoted to ending bear bile farming and improving the welfare of animals across Asia. They promote compassion and respect for all animals and work to bring about long-term change.
Founded in 1998, the Animals Asia team has been rescuing bears since 1994. They operate award-winning bear rescue sanctuaries in China and Vietnam, and we are the only organisation with a bear sanctuary in China. Their founder and CEO, Jill Robinson MBE, Dr.med.vet. h.c., Hon LLD is widely recognised as the world’s leading authority on the cruel bear bile industry, having campaigned against it since 1993.
Their work focuses on three major programmes:
Animals Asia works to end the bear bile trade, which sees over 10,000 bears – mainly moon bears but also sun bears and brown bears – kept on bile farms across Asia. It has rescued more than 600 bears from the industry since it was established.
Animals Asia works to end the trade in dogs and cats for food in Asia, collaborates with governments and NGO’s to improve the welfare of companion animals, and promotes humane population management.
Animals Asia campaigns for an end to abusive animal practices in zoos and safari parks in Southeast Asia, and works closely with governing authorities and facilities to improve animal management and increase awareness of the welfare needs of captive wild animals.
Will you help feed a survivor bear today?
The reality of bear bile farming is so shocking, you may find it hard to believe. Bears suffer years or even decades of confinement and malnutrition.
