Helps Us Rescue Balu & Benji
Brothers Benji and Balu have spent most of their lives on the side of a restaurant, surviving off scraps from the restaurant and customers. Animal welfare standards are low in Azerbaijan with limited enforcement of the few legal protections that exist. Both bears were malnourished and had significant damage to their teeth from bar-biting, a common stress indicator. The damage to Balu’s teeth was so severe that he had to have two teeth extracted upon examination.
We have a suitable area earmarked within our site but we need your help to create an inspiring place for our rescue bears to call home.
Every pound raised can help us reach our goal of £150,000 to ensure a suitable home and transport for these worthy animals.
