The aim of International Animal Rescue is to come to the aid of wild and domestic animals with hands-on rescue and rehabilitation.

At International Animal Rescue we do exactly what our name says. We save animals from suffering around the world by:

Cutting free the dancing bears of India
Rescuing primates from the animal smugglers of Indonesia
Saving migratory birds from the guns of Malta
Providing veterinary care for the stray dogs and cats of India

When we can, we release rescued animals back into the wild. And when that’s not possible, we care for them in our sanctuaries.

FREE THE DANCING BEARS

IAR has been campaigning to free the bears since 2002 when our first sanctuary opened in Agra, India.

The trade in dancing bears has been illegal in India since 1972, but kalandar nomads still use bears on the streets to beg money from tourists. Indian dancing bears are sloth bears that have been poached from the wild as tiny cubs. Any cub that survives this trauma is destined for a life of misery and pain, beaten and abused to make him 'dance.'

STARVING PUPPIES IN INDIA

Puppies like Pixie deserve a chance of life

There are hundreds of puppies fighting for their lives in India.

Puppies that deserve a chance of life. If we get help to them quickly, our vets and volunteers can save their lives. When they are healthy and strong we can find them loving homes.

Last month we rehomed 65 puppies at our centre in Goa. Help us make it more next month.
