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.
