Sun bears and moon bears are suffering in bile farms and the illegal wildlife trade. We need your help to rescue them.

Help rescue bears

Sun bears & moon bears need help!

When Perth grandmother, Mary Hutton, learnt of moon bears living in horrific conditions in bile farms, she formed Free the Bears.

Since then, our small charity has helped rescue and rehabilitate over 1,000 bears, as well as protecting wild bears.

Just like our founder Mary, you can make a difference. Help us rescue more bears from the exploitation they endure.
