Thanks to our wonderful supporters, our rescued lions and tigers are still enjoying Halloween treats two weeks on! To see how much they have been having, check them out here – watch them in action here.
Please send your love for Sasha who is currently under observation in hospital and waiting for an examination from the ophthalmologist. In September, she was diagnosed with early stage cataracts in both eyes and the Resident Welfare Team have been concerned that she is having difficulty seeing. If she is starting to have difficulties with her sight we will adapt her care accordingly.
She’s certainly faced some challenges. Prior to her rescue from a circus in Guatemala, Sasha had a toe crushed in a cruel declawing operation and developed bone cancer in her leg. Dr Caldwell performed ground-breaking surgery to replace the cancerous bone with a titanium implant.
Simba, one of the lions we rescued emptying the circuses in Peru, also had a hospital stay after suffering from a nosebleed. Dr Caldwell found a large soft tissue mass that could be causing the nosebleeds, but it is not something which can be tackled clinically. The elderly lion has several chronic health issues related to his former circus life, including arthritis and spondylosis of the neck but continues to enjoy his golden years at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary. Perhaps the best moment of the past month was all the head rubbing, kissing, and nuzzling when Simba was reunited with brother Rey on his return from hospital. Check it out here.
Good news: Minister for Food Security and Rural Affairs Angela Eagle MP announced “this is the final year of industry-led [badger] culling in England’s high risk and edge areas” and that “only one licensed cull will remain”. This follows a recent public petition which prompted a parliamentary debate. A huge step forward for wildlife and effective disease control.
Elephant and camel rides are back at the Texas Renaissance Festival in Todd Mission every weekend until the end of the month. Their long-time ride supplier is locally-based Trunks & Humps, exposed by ADI investigators shocking, hooking, and beating an elephant. These animals spend extended periods, chained, tethered and shut in transporters. Please contact the festival at info@texrenfest.com or 281-356-2178 and politely urge them to end elephant and other wild-animal rides and performances. Email usa@ad-international.org for materials if you can host a protest.
ADI’s team in Colombia are pleased to report that Bill 006/24, making bestiality a criminal offence, has been unanimously approved in the Senate Plenary and moves to the House of Representatives. The bill also seeks to prevent the publication of images which encourage bestiality in digital media – which is reportedly on the rise.
The Polish parliament, the Sejm, has voted to ban fur farming and this goes before the Senate and the President for final approval. Poland is currently the world’s fourth-largest exporter of fur, and the bill will give breeders until the end of 2033 to wind down operations and apply for compensation. Many will remember the harrowing images of from ADI’s investigation of the country’s fur farms which led to the prosecution of one fur farmer.
The United Nations report that CO2 levels in our atmosphere have spiked to 424ppm – the highest increase since measurements began in 1957 – increasing fears that global action against climate change is stalling despite the serious consequences already being felt worldwide. The crisis isn’t just about fossil fuels; wildfires, driven by hotter, drier conditions, have also played a major role, especially in the Americas. Reducing emissions is crucial not only for the climate, but for our future – find out how you can reduce your carbon footprint.
It wasn’t just Simba who was recently in the hospital. Our beloved sanctuary rescue dog Milo also paid a trip to Dr Caldwell. Milo appears to have got a large thorn or wood splinter stuck in his leg during his romps around the sanctuary with the other dogs Freya and Rollo. Dr Caldwell removed this and sent Milo home with the challenging instruction for the sanctuary team to “Keep Milo quiet for the next 48 hours!” Needless to say Rollo and Freya gave him a hero’s welcome on his return.
A young cygnet killed in a catapult attack has increased calls for tougher laws on the, currently unregulated, sale of these weapons. Swans, ducks, gulls, cats and dogs have all suffered injuries. The government is being called on to introduce restrictions on sales, tougher penalties and greater police powers to act. Sign this petition banning the sale of catapults and contact your MP.
Growler Pines Tiger Preserve in Hugo, Oklahoma says it has closed after handler Ryan Easley (linked to ‘Tiger King’ Joe Exotic) was killed by a tiger during a show and that the animals have already been relocated to facilities which share ‘similar values’. No further information on where the animals have gone is currently available.
After decades of animal suffering, with 100 deaths including that of orca Lolita, the Florida marine park has finally shut down. Ae relocation plan for the animals has yet to be released. Please contact the aquarium owners, The Dolphin Company, and politely urge them to send the remaining animals to sanctuary. Call +52 (998) 881-7400 and email rpublicas@thedolphinco.com.
In the US, urge your Congress members to support the reintroduction of the SWIMS (Strengthening Welfare in Marine Settings) Act. This would ban taking from the wild and breeding of orcas, beluga whales, pilot whales and false killer whales (part of the dolphin family), for public display. It would also ban their import and export, with exemptions for transportation to sanctuaries and the wild.
In Canada, another beluga whale & harbor seal have died at Marineland, Niagara Falls, Ontario. Since 2019, dozens of marine mammals have perished under conditions shrouded in secrecy, followed by calls for the survivors to be placed in sanctuaries. If you live in Canada, please send a polite message to Fisheries Minister Joanne Thompson and urge the Canadian government to send the remaining 30 belugas to a seaside sanctuary.
A new UK study has found that people who follow a plant-based diet can lower their risk of type 2 diabetes by 32% – and at the same time, shrink their food-related carbon footprint by nearly 20%.
Food systems – especially meat and dairy – are major contributors to greenhouse gas emissions. Reducing meat in our diets could not only cut emissions drastically but also free up land for biodiversity and reforestation. Eating for your health and the environment isn’t a sacrifice – it’s a double win and kind to animals too!
Third Time Lucki died after suffering a fatal injury on the first day of racing. The veterinary assessment showed an irreparable injury. Horses should not be forced to risk injury or death for entertainment. It’s time to end this cruel industry. Do not attend or bet on horse races.
45 countries have banned the testing of cosmetics on animals, yet although some states have unilaterally passed bans, the cruel, archaic tests remain legal across most of the United States. While the FDA recently announced a policy to replace the use of animals in experiments with advanced, human-relevant methods, this does not apply to cosmetics testing. The Humane Cosmetics Act is urgently needed to bring the US into the 21st century on this issue. Can you help us pass the Humane Cosmetics Act? Take action here.
Our live broadcasts from the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary have been a huge hit on social media platform Facebook and we are pleased to report that you can catch up on recordings of these on YouTube. For many ADI supporters winter is fast approaching and the leaves are falling from the trees, so you might enjoy seeing Spring arriving at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary, South Africa during an hour long live tour this month. watch here.
2025 was the year of Goliath and Coralie who swapped a circus cage in France for life at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary in May. We’ve marked the moment with a special card, available as a pack of 10, showing them back in the land of their ancestors. An image of the pair also features in our 2026 ADI Animal Rescue Calendar alongside eleven other great images that will put a smile on your face throughout the coming year. Remember, all sales from our online store help animals, check out our UK store | US store.
A large, mature tree has collapsed into two enclosures at Pilpintuwasi in Peru, causing severe damage. The black capuchins and one white capuchin all escaped, but thankfully, did not go far, and were quickly brought back.
Work has begun to cut down and clear out the damaged tree, but we urgently need funds to begin huge repairs to the enclosures.
Thanks to our supporters, we were able to build a complex of monkey habitats at Pilpintuwasi for the dozens of primates rescued during our epic Operation Spirit of Freedom mission in Peru, ten years ago.
While they were being cared for at the ADI Temporary Rescue Unit, we undertook one of the most challenging construction projects we have ever faced. Our priority was to preserve the trees and as much of the natural environment as possible inside the habitats. In the white capuchin habitat, we were able to incorporate a small stream by sinking the fence into the rocks, so they could enjoy having a stream running through their habitat.
We took the first 39 primates, coati mundis, and kinkajous – cut from chains in circuses, restaurants, and taken from wildlife traffickers – back to their natural environment in the rainforest. Revisit their journey home:
We incorporated the trees into the habitats to make their new homes as close as possible to the life in the wild they lost. We reunited them with their own kind, ending their loneliness, creating families, and allowing them to swing through the trees and be monkeys again. These monkeys can never return to the wild due to the abuse they have suffered, including broken teeth and other injuries. Our sanctuary habitats in the forest gave them a lifeline.
There is something magical about seeing our rescued monkeys home, in the Amazon rainforest. Climbing through the trees, watching butterflies, swinging on ropes, picking through the undergrowth, tasting everything, finding treats, always so inquisitive, examining anything new, grooming each other, chattering and just being together with their new families.
The physical and emotional damage they have suffered means these monkeys will need special care for the rest of their lives. Some may live for as long as 30 years. That’s why I need your help today.
Can you help with a donation today to repair their precious home? Please donate here to support our urgent appeal.
Happy Halloween from all of the ADI team and our rescued animals. Special thanks to everyone who sponsored Halloween treats this year. The pumpkins, catnip sacks and boxes were all greeted with great enthusiasm!
Seeing our residents having so much fun is a reminder of what you have made possible through your support of ADI – emptying the circus cages in countries like Peru, Colombia and Guatemala; taking on the wildlife pet trade: and keeping animals out of hunters’ sights. Thanks to you, they swapped real-life horror stories for bliss at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary.
These videos are fun but show a vital part of what we do at ADI, giving these animals back their lives with space, natural habitats, enrichment to express themselves, and wherever possible the company of their own kind. None of it is possible without your support. Thank you.
Great news: Yesterday brothers Simba and Rey Ayacucho were reunited at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary after Simba’s brief stay at Old Chapel Veterinary Clinic and the boys were clearly delighted to see each other today!
Inseparable since their rescue by ADI from a small circus cage in Peru eleven years ago, there was a lot of head rubbing, kissing, and nuzzling as the two senior citizens (both over 17 years old) were reunited. Simba had been taken into hospital after suffering occasional nosebleeds.
After several days of observation with no further nosebleeds, Dr Caldwell sedated him for a thorough physical examination. He found a large soft tissue mass that could be causing the nosebleeds, but it is not something which can be tackled clinically. Simba’s long-term issues remain, he is elderly now, with chronic health issues related to his former circus life, including arthritis and spondylosis of the neck.
Dr Caldwell confirmed that Simba will continue to need close monitoring but for now he has a quality of life and the best place for him was with brother Rey. The boys certainly seemed to agree as they kissed and cuddled yesterday morning. Simba and Rey A are incredibly close and many will remember their joyous reunion a few years ago when Rey returned from hospital, they nuzzled, played and, despite his arthritis, old Simba skipped around his friend.
Across the Sanctuary, our residents enjoying their early Halloween treats thanks to everyone who has been supporting our Annual Halloween Fundraiser.
With a shortage locally of pumpkins this year (and our home-grown sanctuary pumpkins and watermelons already given out) our team threw their efforts into Halloween themed catnip sacks and boxes.
The animals clearly have a lot of fun with the different treats we provide and its worth remembering that this enrichment plays an important role keeping the them physically and mentally healthy.
Watch out next Friday for our 2025 ADIWS Halloween video, but in the meantime you can enjoy last year’s fun here.
There’s still time to support our Halloween Fundraiser because any extra funds raised will be used to keep the animals playing until the end of the year! You can still show your support through our Facebook fundraiser or ADIWS enrichment donate page for UK/Euros/Rand or US $, CA $.
Please also remember the importance of ongoing veterinary care, especially for senior residents link Simba, and consider a special donation to celebrate this old warriors homecoming: Donate UK/Euros/Rand | Donate US $, CA $.
Halloween is coming and rescued French circus lions Goliath and Coralie have already been given a spook-tastic treat at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary (ADIWS). Goliath cautiously checked it out, giving Coralie the perfect opportunity to race up and snatch it from right under Goliath’s nose – and off she ran!
You can help our Sanctuary residents enjoy their Halloween, while making a contribution towards their care and sponsoring a fangtastic treat. Donate through our Facebook fundraiser here or enrichment donate page US, CA $ | £, Euros, Rand and we’ll be reporting back on all the fun and games in the coming weeks!
The suffering caused by whale and dolphin shows is well known. However, despite Tui claiming that it is setting ‘a new benchmark’ for cetacean welfare in the tourism industry, the company continues to promote and sell tickets for attractions with captive dolphins, such as Loro Parque in Tenerife, where a baby dolphin was born this month. If TUI truly wants to lead on cetacean welfare, tell them they need to stop promoting these shows. Contact Tui here to ask them to drop promotion of marine parks (select No to having a booking reference).
Our thanks to all who helped make this year’s ADI Art Auction a success, raising over $2,000 for our pet trade and circus survivors at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary. This would not have been possible without the talented artists who donated their beautiful work. Thank you to each and every one of them and to everyone who bid, shared, and supported the auction. Contact us if you would like to donate art for next year’s auction: usa@ad-international.org | info@ad-international.org.
Changes in the residents’ family dynamics at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary mean we sometimes need to see whether we can help residents make new relationships. Following the loss of Jade, leader of the ‘Spice Girls’, rescued from a circus in Guatemala, the family dynamic changed. Luna had lost her sister, and Sun and Moon were without their leader. Luna initially distanced herself from the youngsters, and started to show greater interest in family member Sasha tiger, next door (Luna and Jade had lived next door to Sasha in the circus). So the ADIWS has been giving Luna time in Sasha’s habitat while Sasha is in her feeding camp, which allows them to communicate more closely. We are monitoring any interactions between Sasha and Luna to see if they would like to be companions, or whether Luna prefers Sun and Moon after all. It would be lovely to see Sasha tiger find companionship and it might be the right thing for Luna, but these are tigers, and such relationship building can take a while. Ultimately, it will be up to them!
Spain’s popular legislative initiative to end the current legal protection bullfighting enjoys as a ‘cultural heritage’ activity, was defeated by 169 votes against to 57, with 118 abstentions. A massive disappointment after the debate was requested by hundreds of thousands of Spanish citizens. The surprising number of abstentions does indicate a way forward on this horrific cruelty. The battle continues.
Following the success of the campaign to ban bullfighting in Colombia, the ADI Colombia team will be at the International Anti-Bullfighting Summit in Madrid next month, speaking about the campaign in Latin America. We must keep fighting to end this horrific cruelty.
The iconic fashion magazine will no longer feature new animal fur in editorial content or advertising, according to updated guidelines from its parent company Condé Nast. The guidelines also apply to The New Yorker, GQ, and Vanity Fair.
Spring has sprung at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary, heralded with the arrival of baby geese. Proud parents Toitey and Waldo have been strutting around Chris Lee Lodge gardens showing off their goslings, who are exceptionally cute. Both Toitey and Waldo were brought to ADIWS for a permanent, safe, home, after being found in poor conditions. Waldo had been trapped in a metal supermarket trolley, unable to escape or spread his wings. At ADIWS, they roam free and have the option to fly off whenever they want. We are delighted they have decided to stay and make the Sanctuary their home, feeling safe enough to raise their family with us.
Animals on fur farms live their entire lives in intensive conditions, cramped, barren cages on wire floors. Fur farming has been illegal in the UK since 2000 but import and sale of fur continues. Ruth Jones MP introduced the Fur (Import & Sale) Bill to ban the import and sale of fur products in the UK and end this cruel trade. The private member’s bill is expected to have its second reading in Parliament in November and needs your support. Contact your MP today and ask them to support the Fur (Import and Sale) Bill.
In the US, the Mink Virus Act to phase out fur farming is now before the US Congress – can you help? Please urge your Congress members to support the Act (HR2185) to phase out mink farming nationwide. And, If you live in MA, contact your state legislators TODAY in support of House bill 990 and Senate Bill 551 to ban fur products sourced from fur farms statewide, which are both set to be heard in committee on Oct 21.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission is reopening bear hunting in December 2025 having been closed since 2015. Its plan allows the killing of nearly 200 black bears—about 5% of Florida’s estimated population—despite admitted gaps in current data and using rules that allow cruel practices like bait traps and, in coming years, dogs. The state is choosing slaughter over thoughtful coexistence, ignoring non-lethal options like habitat protection and better waste management. Hunting reduces living, feeling beings to targets and trophies, treating Florida’s bears as disposable entertainment for bloodlust. TAKE ACTION – Urge the FWC to stop this hunt and honor the lives of Florida black bears.
The Texas Renaissance Festival will be held until November 30, with elephant and camel rides, and a petting zoo. These animals suffer greatly for brief moments of “entertainment”, enduring long hours of transport in cramped, barren trailers, sometimes weeks on the road traveling from one event to another. They endure long hours of carrying members of the public, day after day. Nothing in this existence resembles anything of their natural lives. Speak up today for the elephants and other animals who suffer year after year – contact info@texrenfest.com and Pat Coveney, GM at pcoveney@texrenfest.com.
A new study has revealed that just 14 major fossil fuel and cement companies are responsible for nearly one-third of all global warming – fueling/fuelling heatwaves now far deadlier and more frequent than ever before. From the 2003 European heatwave to the Pacific Northwest’s record heat dome in 2021, researchers found that every single heatwave since 2000 was made more intense and more likely by human-caused climate change. Shockingly, up to a quarter of these heatwaves wouldn’t have happened without industrial emissions. The intensity of heatwaves has sharply increased, and the risk to human life is growing – with tens of thousands already dying annually from extreme heat. At a personal level, we can take steps to reduce our individual carbon footprint – see the 12 best ways to reduce yours.
South Africa’s Minister of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment has put a hold on the approval of trophy hunting quotas for black rhinos, elephants or leopards – for now. The Minister is awaiting a court ruling on quota setting before deciding, saying he will move forward in line with the ruling and South Africa’s “conservation objectives”. Stripping wild populations of their genetic diversity, trophy hunting does not help conservation. Neither does it help the country economically. Studies have shown how photo tourism benefits the animals and the wider local community, as tourists use services such as small hotels, restaurants, transport, benefiting local people as well as wildlife. To help stop the hunters, support measures to ban hunting trophy imports.
In the UK, urge Prime Minister Keir Starmer to bring in a ban on hunting trophy imports. In the US, urge your lawmakers to back the ProTECT Act to prohibit taking and importing endangered or threatened species into the US as a trophy.

Halloween is just around the corner, and that means we must provide some treats for our lion and tiger residents at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary and have some faboolous fun!
Most of the big cats at the Sanctuary in South Africa were saved from horrific conditions in circuses, while others were rescued from the illegal wildlife pet trade. In our place of loving kindness, they have the freedom to do what they want to do, when they want to do it.
This Halloween, will you sponsor a joyful treat for one of the Sanctuary residents?
Our rescued lions and tigers roam natural habitats of several acres – we give them a life as close to nature as possible. Being clever and very playful, they love extra fun and games including treats such as pumpkins, catnip sacks and punchbags, watermelons, and boxes. Such enrichment is vital for keeping our inquisitive residents mentally and physically stimulated and having fun.
These are some of the images of our residents enjoying their enrichment at last year’s Halloween party.
It costs an average of $2,000 / £1,485 each month per animal for food, care, veterinary, maintenance, and security. That’s $68/£50 per day. Therefore, we must ask for a little something extra with each Halloween treat donation, to go towards each resident’s care.
Halloween Treat Sponsor – $15 / £10 – covers the cost of a pumpkin or other fangtastic treat and a contribution towards a lion or tiger’s care.
Halloween ‘Golden’ Treat Sponsor – $68 / £50 – provides a pumpkin or other spooktacular treat and one full day of care for a resident.
‘One-For-All’ Halloween Sponsor – $250 / £186 – a pumpkin or other eeriesistible treat and care contribution for every lion and tiger at ADIWS.
Our goal is to get enough sponsors that we can keep the cats entertained with seasonal treats through to the end of the year.
Please help with a donation today and we look forward to reporting back on the fun and games you’ve made possible in the coming weeks.
A month after his companion Tanya passed away from cancer, dear Tarzan has reunited with his beloved and peacefully surrounded by the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary team, gathered to say goodbye. As we mourn the loss of these two inspirational warriors, we remember the loyalty and devotion which helped them through the hell of the circus and saw them come home to Africa to enjoy their golden years in peace. Watch how love conquered all for Tarzan and Tanya
It is with great sadness to announce our dear Tarzan has passed away, a month after his beloved Tanya. The two lions, rescued by ADI from a circus in Guatemala seven years ago, had been inseparable and their devotion to each other won the hearts of people all over the world. They became known as the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary Sweethearts.
