TV vet Scott Miller joins our campaign to free the bears

TV vet Scott Miller with a bear cub in Agra. > Read The People article
> Read Scott’s account of his trip

Following a visit in September to our bear sanctuaries in India, vet Dr Scott Miller from ‘This Morning’ TV is adding his voice to our ‘free the bears’ campaign. Scott travelled to India with our ‘dental duo’ Lisa Milella and Paul Cassar who were joined for the first time by dentist Caroline Ingamells. After assisting with the dental surgery, and getting friendly with many of the bears and cubs in the Agra and Bannerghatta sanctuaries, Scott is keen to help us raise funds for a veterinary surgery and equipment for Bannerghatta so the bears can receive the same extensive treatment as the lucky ones in Agra.

In the UK’s THE PEOPLE newspaper on 26 November, Scott appealed to readers to support the campaign. Please Read the article and DONATE.

Our thanks to Scott for his wonderful work promoting the ‘free the bears’ campaign.
