Man Finds Black Bear In His Truck In Truckee, California
29th May 2013, by The Great Animal Rescue Chase
BEAR RE-DECORATES PICK UP TRUCK
This young bear somehow got himself inside a pick up truck and the door shut behind him. Not to worry, the bear is 100% fine and went quickly on his way when police opened the door of the truck to release him. But, the truck's owner Evan Neilson will have some explaining to do when he submits this unique claim to his insurance company....

"HEY....CAN WE HAVE A LITTLE PRIVACY PLEASE?"
www.HarmonyFund.org
Yes, Beast and Sweetheart do like their privacy but caretaker Karen F. couldn't resist sneaking this quick photo of the two enjoying the toys in one of their outbuildings. The cats are part of a colony of feral and semi-feral felines who were relocated just before winter when they were thrown out of their territory by the property owner.
The cats were all trapped and relocated to a home-based barn sanctuary which was specially...

India Bans Dolphin Performing Dolphin Shows
There will be no more dolphin shows in India thanks to a new ruling by India's Ministry of Environments and Forests which will no longer condone the behind-the-scenes cruelty that goes into 'training' dolphins to perform.
India has decided that dolphin pods are not to be hunted down in the ocean or bred in captivity for the purpose of making them into clowns for human amusement. Instead dolphins are to be appreciated for the intelligent and emot...

All 52 turtles were released as part of the Sea Turtle Trek that started in Cape Cod, Mass...

After years of cooperation and consent to care for a feral cat colony on the grounds of the recycling center in Epping, New Hampshire, the town has suddenly decided to prohibit volunteers from feeding the cats and ordered their shelter to be torn down. These cats live as ferals but have become dependent on the food and shelter provided by caretakers. Please take a moment to sign this petition. Together we believe we can reverse this...

Help us help Bosnia's Dogs & Cats -
Please share this with your friends.
Willy was rescued as a very young puppy from the streets. Taken into foster but then had to be put in ‘pension’ (boarding) as the foster home already had too many dogs and cats. He’s a very lovable dog, in fact he is ‘love-thirsty’. Very playful, likes other dogs and cats. In fact, he's a notorious cat snuggler!
Willy spent all his puppyhood waiting for a home and now, as he's reached full size, he still w...

GIZMO's FUTURE?
Gizmo was rescued as a young puppy last year – he and his siblings were found in a garbage bin in Bosnia. Gizmo is amongst the few survivors of a bad outbreak of canine parvovirus, and has lived all his life in ‘pension’ (kennels). Because of a poor immune system he and his siblings have suffered from the skin condition demodex. He's slowly recovering, but living in pension, while is safer and better than on the streets, is not at all what he needs.
The only way he will f...

In Serbia, Goran Samardžić always wanted a pet when he was a boy, but a broken family life simply prevented this form of comfort. As war and sanctions and suffering invaded his country, Goran's dream was slowly smothered. It wasn't until Goran grew up and got married that his love of animals was rekindled through the actions of his own little girl.
"She took food and milk from the house and went to feed the dogs," Goran said proudly of his...
