About Animals Asia
The Animals Asia team has been rescuing bears since 1994.
Animals Asia is the only organisation with sanctuaries in China
and Vietnam dedicated to rehabilitating bears rescued from the
bile trade. Our founder and CEO, Jill Robinson MBE is widely
recognised as the world’s leading expert on the cruel bear bile
industry, having campaigned against it since 1993.
Our other two programmes, Cat and Dog Welfare and Zoos
and Safari Parks, are based in China, where we work with local
authorities and communities to bring about long-lasting change.
Our mission
Animals Asia is devoted to the needs of
wild and domesticated species in Asia.
We are working to end cruelty and restore
respect for animals across Asia.
Our vision
Change for all animals, inspired by
empathy for the few. Our animal
ambassadors embody the ideal that
empathy for one animal can evolve
into empathy for an entire species and
ultimately for all species.
