Fondation Brigitte Bardot 🌍

ALL HANDS ON DECK! We need your help to #FREEPAULWATSON Please contact the Ministry of Justice in Copenhagen regarding the recent arrest of Captain Paul Watson in Nuuk, Greenland. Paul will be detained in Nuuk until August 15 to allow the Danish Ministry of Justice time to decide whether to extradite him to Japan on an international arrest warrant. He could face spending the rest of his life in a Japanese prison. 📢US citizens should also contact their local representatives & state senators to raise attention in the Department of State. A list of contacts and email templates available at freepaulwatson.org Should you choose to write your own message, please be respectful. We are overwhelmed and gladdened by the outpouring of support these past few days! We need your help now more than ever. #FREEPAULWATSON

Due to a violent earthquake and numerous cyclones that struck Vanuatu in early 2023, the campaigns had been delayed. They have just resumed and we are pleased to share with you the first results of our commitment to combat the animal distress of this isolated and helpless island.

Vets Beyond Borders, with whom the FBB collaborated to develop the vaccination/sterilization program in Sikkim State, India, called on the Foundation to be a partner on this new project.

🇻🇺 Resumption of sterilization after earthquake in Vanuatu The FBB received a request for assistance for a national program from the Government of Vanuatu in 2022 on the island of the same name in the Pacific Ocean.

Today is #BanLiveExports International Awareness Day where people across the world call for an end to the cruel & unnecessary practice of transporting live animals for slaughter or fattening. Join us -share this video calling for a ban & a switch to a carcass-only trade now!

In the Netherlands, a judge sided with @WakkerDier against catching chickens by the feet in farms. 👏 Despite a 20-year-old EU-wide ban, the poultry industry continues this cruel practice. wakkerdier.nl/persberichten/…

50 #wolves were killed in 🇨🇭 to 'protect' sheep. Yet recent DNA analyses have proved that these wolves had never attacked sheep. ❌ Further proof of the ineffectiveness of non-targeted culls. ✅ #Coexistence is possible, non-lethal alternatives exist! ⤵️ bit.ly/4apHCId

👎🇫🇷 Shocking: after #wolves, it's now the turn of #dogs to fall victim to aggressive lobby groups. Since 10 April and until 10 May, France has authorised the killing of stray dogs in five communes of the Aveyron department in order to "protect sheep". 🐶🐏

#International 🌸🐻 Spring is here! All our residents of LA FORÊT DES OURS de Belitsa have come out of their winter sleep and have left their lair. They are all in great shape and ready to enjoy the first rays of sunshine. 🌞🍃 More info : bearsanctuary-belitsa.org/fr

#International 🐘 Nepal: Since 2019, the FBB has been supporting SU4E’s work to protect elephants exploited in the tourism industry. Hosting elephants as well as raising awareness make it an essential project to ensure a better future for Eva, Lhamo and many elephants in Asia.

In a new survey by @beuc, almost 9/10 consumers responded that they support better #animalwelfare laws for animals raised for consumption, and believe that the EU should act to update legislation to offer them protection. 👏 bit.ly/49qUvls

Thank you so much @FBB_Officiel @FBB_Com For the past 2 years, the Brigitte Bardot Foundation has been supporting EHEES for the daily well-being of Gandhi and Delhi. This helps us to provide their care using mainly natural products and herbal medicine. facebook.com/ElephantHaven

#Coexistence with #wolves IS possible! 🐺 Effective preventive measures include: ✅ Fencing. ✅ Shepherding. ✅ Guard dogs. ❌ Science and experience show that non-targeted culling is inefficient. Watch this short documentary to find out more ⤵️

BEAR SANCTUARY Belitsa temporarily took care of the three orphaned cubs that were rescued in autumn this year. Recently, we transferred the three little ones to the specialized brown bear rehabilitation center "Arcturos" in Greece.

Our partner in Bulgaria Cat House Foundation has a lot of merit for this, as do the many associations in France and around the world that struggle year after year to influence the community and the authorities to provide support and take into account the distress of stray animals

#International 🇧🇬 Bulgaria/Plovdiv: we would like to thank again all the volunteers on the ground who catch cats from colonies to have them sterilized and then released back to their places of origin.

#International 🐻 2 orphaned cubs, found near a village in Bulgaria, have just arrived at our @BearsBelitsa sanctuary run in cooperation with @fourpawsint 🌲 Neta and her brother are doing well and are receiving the best care from our teams. Photo: © Hristo Vladev
