Supporters and volunteers help us make our wishes for the animals come true! Not only by speaking up for animals, calling us for wildlife in distress, but also by dropping off surprise donations in-kind which we love!

From ACRES Lao PDR "In the first week of this month, we had four new animals in our care!
The four macaques were donated in the middle of the night. The monk who brought them said he had traveled from a temple in southern Lao. He explained that the temple is very close to what is know locally as a 'monkey forest' and is home to many macaques. He told us that people will often catch them to be kept as pets or tourist 'attractions' but that they will often get donated to the temple too.

The Unexpected Emergency:
It was suppose to be a normal day of routine bandage change for Suzzie at the animal hospital. But things took a drastic turn. Dr Ly examined the condition of her already badly injured hand and decided that it has to be amputated. Her hand had multiple fractures, dead and rotting tissues, her skin was ripped off and 4 of her fingers were so dead that they dropped off on their own. Only her last finger could be saved.
It was 4 hours of intensive operation. But to our...
