The Incredible Transformation Of Dawn Our Most Traumatised Bear 🥰 | Animals Asia

  • Dawn was one of the most traumatised bears we'd ever seen in Animals Asia's 25 years of bear rescue.
    Forced into a barren cage when she was just a cub, the next 20 years of her life was spent languishing in the same spot, day after day, year after year. She was a victim of the bear bile farming industry in Vietnam, thankfully an industry which has since been outlawed.
    Animals Asia rescued Dawn one year ago today. And she was in a terrible condition - so bad we feared we'd never get through to her.
    And yet... with love, patience, and the healing powers of nature, good food, and friendship, Dawn has transformed into a happy, contented, inquisitive bear!
    Follow Animals Asia as we rescue the last few hundred bears who remain on bile farms across Vietnam and bring them home to sanctuary:

    ~ Animals Asia is working with the Vietnam government to end bear bile farming in Vietnam and will rescue the last few hundred bears who still remain on bile farms by 2026 to our sanctuary: www.animalsasia.org.

    Jill, you should be sainted for all of the bears that you have saved over the years, but I can tell from you reaction you have done it out of pure love. God bless you. God bless your team/s. And God bless each and every bear you have already saved and will save in the coming years. There is a special place in heaven for you all. Like you, I am thrilled to see Dawn come to realize that life is, indeed, worth living now that she is no longer caged without hope. May she enjoy every moment of every day for the rest of her life.

I remember Jill saying, "I hope one day I'll have the honor to show you how Dawn goes outside for the first time to feel the grass with her toes, make friends barefoot, just feel the sunlight and learn what it means to be a BEAR." It happened. AND it's just WONDERFUL! ❤❤❤ ❤

Loving life. Enjoying the sun, friendship, food, grass under her feet. She looks soooo much healthier too. This makes me so happy. Thank you so much Jill, AA, and all the wonderful staff!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🥰❤️🙌

    Wonderful to see with all her hair back too, Jill bet you would have loved to stroke her? I would have.
    Also lovely to hear the voice, not sure who she is, say she is our Dawn.
