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.

With your help, we can save many more animals like these.

IAR ON BBC1'S PANORAMA

In the UK on 22 February, BBC One’s Panorama exposed the true facts about the palm oil industry and how it threatens Borneo's orangutans in a programme entitled ‘Dying for a biscuit’.

Our team in West Kalimantan was joined by the Panorama crew to film them rescuing and rehabilitating orangutans at our emergency centre in Ketapang.

OLIVE: DOG WITH A BLOG

Woof! I'm Olive Oyl and I live at Animal Tracks, the IAR centre in Goa. I now have my very own blog to tell you all about the goings on at the centre.

I meet and greet everyone who comes through the gate. I still can’t believe my luck - I was down and out on the streets, but IAR rescued me in the nick of time. Now I’m a real VIP - a Very Important Pooch. Life is great, and thanks to International Animal Rescue and its supporters I’m here to tell the tale! » Read my blog

HISTORY IS MADE IN INDIA

Animal welfare history is made in India: The very last dancing bear has now been removed off the streets of India and into our care.

This achievement would not have been possible without full-hearted support and assistance from the Indian Government and the Indian Forestry Department and legislation passed in 1972 by our patron Maneka Gandhi. We applaud the Government for its vital role in achieving this historic success. » BBC news article
