Join Jill Robinson as she visits Bonnie, Clyde and Kindness in quarantine

We're live from our Vietnam sanctuary as Animals Asia's Founder and CEO Jill Robinson visits our most recent arrivals, Bonnie, Clyde and Kindness in quarantine!
We rescued Bonnie and Clyde two weeks ago, and last week we rescued Kindness. All three had been in cages on bile farms for 18-20 years suffering repeated bile extraction.
What happens next?
Bonnie, Clyde and Kindness will spend around 30 days in quarantine which is mandatory for every new arrival at sanctuary.
In quarantine we assess the bears' physical and mental health and build up their trust and confidence in our team and their new surroundings. Jill will explain more about quarantine in the film.
We will keep you updated on their progress over the coming days and weeks.

Good news for these wonderful bears. What a wonderful group of workers, being the hands, feet, and brains of kindness❤❤❤

[@anniemac3075]

I'm sure the bears feel the totally different vibe from you guys which goes a long way towards them feeling safe & not threatened by you. Lots of lovely grub helps too 😸. Proud to be one of Oliver's Army making monthly donations by direct debit to @AnimalsAsia.

[@brendanorris9944]

Are you hopping that Bonnie and Clyde will eventually be in a pen together ??as their cages are quite close

[@HKAAF]

Hi Brenda, yes we will introduce them to each other in a den and hope to house them in the same enclosure ❤️

[@bunglejoy3645]

Bonnie or Clyde will need op to prevent babies though wont they because it's a likelihood that due to their earlier treatment they wouldn't vote with raising cubs, it's just a question I never know till I watched these videos that there was such a thing as moon bears when you think of bears you think pandas, grizzly bears, black bears, but I must admit their faces are the thing I love about them❤❤❤❤

[@Loesters]

Hey Bonnie, Hey Clyde! Good to see you safe! Just a little while and you will be loving the grass and open air. We love you. Say hi to Dawn if you happen to meet her. I hope she awaits your presents!! ❤🐻🐻🐻❤

[@danieladipietro6341]

Hi Jill e A .A. all of you, do you need a very good fruit cutter (and vegan cook)??!!! ciao gente 🐾🐾❤

[@HKAAF]

😄

[@LouciferFlump]

Have the government actually acknowledged then that bear bile doesn’t actually perform any genuine medical purpose, so using bears for bile extraction is not only cruel but pointless?

[@HKAAF]

Hi Loucifer, sadly it actually is effective. But there are many herbal and synthetic alternatives available, we grow plants at our sanctuaries to make herbal remedies and pass them out for free to the local communities to show bear bile is unneccesary ❤️

[@islandhorses..]

how long are they quarantined? it hurts me to still see them in the cages😢

[@malinodmyr4287]

What kind of food did they get in the bile farm?

[@HKAAF]

We can't say for sure, but we do know that once they arrive at sanctuary and start to eat a healthy, balanced diet, they surely benefit ❤️

[@Anita-ji5hr]

What is the average life span of Moon bears?

[@Anita-ji5hr]

30 years I have heard

[@spirithorse4989]

When will Asian medicine leave the 5th millennium BC behind?

[@sylviekins]

Mind you, many animals are still used in developing our modern medicines, sadly.

[@fsh57]

have a question!! are you guys will keep them in the cage or there is a place that they can move freely?

[@michelletuckwood9032]

They are in quarantine for a month, then they will be released into large pens for a short period where they are introduced to other bears, then they are released outside to huge enclosures.

[@frankoradix2745]

Why don't your bears have a better base than these bars?You are doing a wonderful job. I will continue to support you. 

[@sylviekins]

Quarantine for safety and also slow introduction from their tiny cages to the great outdoors.

[@oldboy5001]

I think they are better than the cages they were rescued from, with more support for the paws. I guess there have to bars at the base for hygeine purposes and because the bears get regular hose baths.

[@Leolove48]

Why are they in cages instead of nature.

[@HKAAF]

Sadly, the bears can’t be released into the wild. Bears on bile farms are traumatised both physically and mentally by their captivity. Often bears have been held captive for their whole lives and haven't learned the skills to survive in the wild. There is also the issue of human / bear conflict which is a particular risk if a bear has relied on humans for food for their whole life. This is why we rescue the bears and apply our decades of expertise to rehabilitate them and give them the support and care they need in a safe environment that reflects their natural habitat as best as we can.💚 Please join us in giving love and care to these traumatised bears: animalsasia.org/give

[@peterng25]

What a special treat to see Bonnie, Clyde, and kindness get the gentle ministrations of Jill herself! Wonderful job!

[@lozzyloulou1]

Thank you from Australia! ❤

[@georgiecam19]

You are a beautiful earth angel, Jill. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the tremendous undertaking you have achieved by saving these beautiful earthlings. All the world has been watching and Jill, you were an ordinary earthling like us, but now, you have achieved a status far beyond that, proving what a powerhouse you are.

[@HKAAF]

Thank you Georgie 🥰

[@Finding457]

Blesss you all, sweet Rescue Angels ❤ What would the poor bears be fed on before you rescued them?

[@HKAAF]

Hi, great question. It would have likely been something like rice and water or some other kind of gruel.

[@Finding457]

@@HKAAF dear God, that’s terrible!

[@KarenPaolillo]

Just wonderful Jill love you and all at AA and of course the bears xx
