Illegal Wildlife Trade

Join us today on #InternationalGibbonDay - to celebrate this incredible lesser ape and the true acrobats of the jungle.

Please help us get this sad sun bear out of this cage and to our sanctuary. We only have a short window of time to rescue this bear.

New arrival > Laam – a long-tailed macaque who was hit by a car and then attacked by either monkeys or dogs.

As today is #WorldAnimalDay, we want to raise awareness of the alarming trade in otters for the fur and pet industries.

This bird of prey was found on the side of the road, not moving, very weak and in danger. We therefore took him in to help him recuperate, and soon enough, he was strong enough to go back home

It is with enormous sadness that we share the sudden death of our magnificent, Maggie.

It was reported that this little guy fell from a tree when he was an infant. A family took him in for four years.

Chocolate was rescued from the illegal pet trade when he was a tiny baby – only two months old. His mother was killed for bushmeat and he was sold to be destined for a miserable life as a photo prop.

WFFT Founder, Edwin Wiek, found this Rufous-winged Buzzard lying on the side of the road. He was very weak.
