More than 60 animals urgently need your help.

In Argentina, two brown bears and over 60 big cats - including 32 lions and 29 tigers - are living in severely inadequate conditions in a former zoo. Confined to cramped enclosures and deprived of proper care, each animal endures unimaginable physical and psychological distress. Their daily suffering is truly heartbreaking.

Emergency medical care can’t wait.

An initial assessment has revealed that the animals are in critical need of proper care. We have serious concerns about their safety, health and well-being. 

Our team is on site right now, preparing for a comprehensive veterinary assessment. After providing the emergency medical care these animals urgently need, we must find species-appropriate solutions to protect them in the long term.  

We rely on your help to carry out our lifesaving work and be there for animals in desperate need. Will you support FOUR PAWS to be able to respond to complex emergency missions?
