Help Us Shut Down Miami Seaquarium

On August 18, Tokitae, the captive orca at Miami Seaquarium, tragically passed away, dashing hopes of her promised return to the Salish Sea. Her death highlights the ongoing issues of animal cruelty and neglect at the facility, which houses other animals suffering in unnatural conditions.

We’re calling for one million signatures worldwide to pressure Miami Seaquarium to shut down and relocate these animals to sanctuaries. Join us in advocating for their freedom and ending the exploitation of wild animals.

Baloo the Bear Needs Your Help

For the last 23 years, Baloo has been trapped in a decaying enclosure at a ski resort in Romania. But World Animal Protection is trying to change this—and we need you.

Baloo’s life is one of misery. From the time he was a small cub, he’s been treated like an object, not the feeling and curious bear that he is. For “food” he’s infrequently tossed cornflakes and lemonade. Children poke at him with sticks in between his bars. Sometimes, people even give him alcohol.

That’s why we are urging the Romanian government to release Baloo immediately and turn him over to us, where we can relocate him to our Libearty Bear Sanctuary. There, Baloo will finally get the freedom and care he deserves. We are mobilizing supporters around the world, and we have to keep the pressure up.
