Thnak you @GeoBeats Animals for sharing Tanya and Tarzan’s inspirational story.

Just as relevant today, this thoughtful poem was written by 12-year-old Rachel Johnson and published in our 1992 Animals’ Defender magazine. You can help such poor hens by avoiding chicken and helping to save more farmed animals with a plant-based diet.

🚫No intentional removal of viable wild animals from their natural habitat for exhibition, education, or research 🚫No invasive or intrusive research In the US, please support TEAPSPA, a federal bill to prohibit wild animal acts:

TRUE SANCTUARY RULES: 🚫 No breeding of sanctuary animals 🚫 No trade in sanctuary animals, nor their body parts 🚫 No physical interaction nor contact with the sanctuary animals 🚫No unsupervised visitation (continued below)

Ryan Easley, a tiger handler linked to “Tiger King,” was mauled to death during a show in OK, showing the human cost of using wild animals for “entertainment.” Tigers belong in the wild or true sanctuaries, not cages performing tricks. #EmptytheCages

Luna has started to show interest in Sasha tiger next door. We have been giving Luna time in Sasha’s habitat while Sasha is in her feeding camp, which allows them to communicate more closely. We'll monitor interactions to see if they'd like to be companions. It'll be up to them!

Happy Birthday to the legendary Brian Blessed OBE! Beloved for his booming voice and larger-than-life heart, Brian has stood with ADI and the animals — from circus campaigns to the “Lion Ark” world premiere. We’re so grateful for his passion and support. Have a great day Brian!

🗣️ Urge your representatives to support the reintroduction of the Traveling Exotic Animal and Public Safety Protection Act (TEAPSPA) to ban wild animal acts nationwide. Take action here:

💻 Not sure who’s coming to your area or when? Go to https://t.co/HmiCeAIovV Together, we can end circus suffering💔🐘🦁

YOU CAN STOP THIS🎪Lights, crowds, glitter, threats of violence—for minutes of “entertainment.” Circuses deny animals space, exercise & social needs, confining them in cages & trailers for 12–40+ hrs. Help end this. Circus coming near you? Protest, educate, or start a local ban.

Happy birthday to actor and friend of ADI, @tonyakay! A vegan and powerful voice in the fight against animal abuse, Tonya has been featured in several ADI videos, including ‘The Reluctant Entertainers’ which was screened at Congress. We all wish her a fantastic birthday🎁

A SENIOR ENJOYING RETIREMENT. 11 years ago an angry mob surrounded ADI as we seized Simba and brother Rey from a circus in Ayacucho, Peru before a 19-hour journey over the Andes mountains through snow before reaching ADI TRU near Lima prior to a flight home to ADIWS South Africa.

DEFEAT FOR BULLS IN SPAIN’S CONGRESS. The initiative to remove bullfighting’s legal protection as ‘cultural heritage’ was defeated 169–57, with 118 abstentions. A huge disappointment after hundreds of thousands demanded debate. The abstentions show a way forward—don’t give up!

GOLIATH SUNNING ON HIS TRAMPOLINE. Arriving at the ADIWS in late May following their rescue from a circus in France, Goliath and his companion Coralie have settled right in. Spring is upon us, bringing warmer days. We think Goliath’s face tells us he's enjoying the sunshine!

FUR IS NO LONGER IN VOGUE. The iconic fashion magazine won’t feature new animal fur in editorial content or advertising anymore according to updated guidelines from parent company Condé Nast – the guidelines also apply to The New Yorker, GQ, and Vanity Fair. Thank you Condé Nast!

Big blow to clean energy: USDA ends support for wind & solar on farmland – despite data showing they impact <0.05% of ag land & often coexist with crops. The UN calls renewables vital for cutting emissions & building a livable future. The shift isn’t optional – it’s essential.

DONKEY DELIGHT When ADI Wildlife Sanctuary in South Africa took in six donkeys from an abandoned holiday lodge, we didn’t know two were pregnant! Months later, babies Nugget and Eyeore arrived. Now a family of eight (plus a springbok!), they roam freely—just as donkeys should.

Protect England’s badgers this National Badger Day! Over 230,000 have been killed in culls over the past decade, despite no proven link and decline of bovine TB. Urge the UK government to end the badger culls without further delay https://t.co/c0tfcX9KYg

REY C, THE ICE LOLLY KING👑Once trapped in a circus cage in Peru, Rey Cusco was rescued 11 yrs ago & now roams 6 acres at ADIWS, SA. To beat the heat, our lions & tigers get frozen blood-water lollies—great for enrichment, hydration & a tasty treat! #StopCircusSuffering

The Minister of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment in South Africa will not approve trophy hunting quotas for black rhinos, elephants or leopards until court ruling on quota setting. Stop the hunters - support measures to ban hunting trophy imports.
