We should Beat Bear Bile Farming

Hi, our names are Maisie and Priya, thank you for showing an interest in our blog. We want to inform you on the disturbing issue of Bear Bile Farming. Bear Bile Farming is an issue growing throughout Asia. The bile extracted is used to create traditional Chinese medicines. During the process of extraction, the bears experience a lot of pain. Although there are alternative herbal remedies available, bile is still being used in medicines. We believe that you should support the WSPA as if this carries on, ‘Moon’ Bears will eventually become extinct. We need to change the attitudes and opinions of the retailers and buyers of products containing bear bile.

Bile is extracted from Black Asian Bears by stressful and discomforting methods, these include:

• Free Drip – a permanent wound made in the bear’s abdomen which continually releases bile.
• Latex Catheter – a narrow rubber pipe embedded under the bear’s skin which is attached to the gall bladder.
• Metal jacket- A rubber pipe is connected to a fluid bag inside a metal box. This is attached to a metal jacket. The bile is drained through the pipe into a fluid bag.

We believe that you should support the WSPA and our campaign because:

• The Black Asian Bears have done nothing wrong to deserve the excruciating pain and they don’t deserve to live in the conditions of that in the above picture.
• The moon bears are becoming extinct which is yet another one of our many species. We need to save them because why are they valued less than any other species?
• By capturing the Moon Bears we are interfering with nature and the way it should be and affecting Earth in the long run.
• We believe you should support the WSPA because they are stopping animal abuse and are well focused on helping the Moon Bears.
• Finally, Bear Bile Farming is cruel and unnecessary so by supporting the WSPA, you are relieving another animal from pain.

We would like to thank you again for taking the time to read our blog. We have a few questions that we would like to ask you if you have time. If you do have a moment would you please also tell us where you live i.e. your home town and country?
