🚢 Brittany Ferries: Please Stop Transporting Live Animals ‼️
For over 30 years, Brittany Ferries stood against the cruel transport of live farmed animals by sea. But in early 2025, they reversed course and resumed the shipment of vulnerable, unweaned calves from Ireland to France 🐮💔.
📢 FOUR PAWS, alongside allies and supporters, has called on Brittany Ferries to end this practice. Yet six months later, our letter and pleas remain unanswered, but now we have your attention!
🔍 Surveys show:
➡️ In the United Kingdom, support for transporting unweaned calves is almost non-existent, with only 1 in 10 agreeing it should be allowed.
➡️ In France, 81% oppose the transport of unweaned calves by sea, and 62% say a ferry company’s involvement would directly affect their travel choices.
💬 “It was the kind of scream that hits you right in the gut.” – Sabine, a passenger who witnessed the suffering and cries of the young animals.
We urge @BrittanyFerries to return to their ethical stance and stop transporting live animals. The public, your customers, and even your own employees are calling for change.

Lion Gjoni was found in 2019, trapped in a tiny cage at a restaurant in Kosovo—illegally smuggled and kept in poor conditions. 💔
Though confiscated in 2020, he had to stay in that same cage for two more years due to lack of appropriate facilities. Then in 2022, a fire broke out nearby, adding urgency to his rescue.
We stepped in and moved him to BEAR SANCTUARY Prishtina —a safe but temporary home where he finally received proper care. 🐻🌳
But Gjoni needed more, particularly companionship, and a true lion’s life. 🦁
Preparations for relocating him abroad took time and involved complex logistics and paperwork. However, we never gave up on him and successfully transferred him to FELIDA Big Cat Sanctuary in July—where he now thrives. 🧡
Thank you to everyone who made Gjoni’s forever home possible.
Stay tuned for more updates on his journey!

Happy 4th rescueversary to Sandro! 🎉
Known as one of the Argentinean Train Tigers, Sandro, the last remaining tiger, celebrates four years at LIONSROCK.
Born in 2004, Sandro and Mafalda lived in a train carriage for 15 years with their sons, Messi and Gustavo. They were rescued and transferred to LIONSROCK in March 2022.
Sadly, Mafalda and Messi passed away in 2024, followed by Gustavo in 2025. Sandro now carries their legacy forward.
Today, at 22 years old, Sandro enjoys his peaceful life despite some age-related health challenges. He has impaired vision, arthritis in his elbows and has undergone two dental procedures. Having been declawed early in life, he also experiences some misalignment that affects his gait and posture.
Despite these difficulties, Sandro continues to live in the safety and care of LIONSROCK.

A Beautiful Bond Begins. 🐻💛
It was a heartwarming day at BEAR SANCTUARY Domazhyr — Bakhmut and Ruta met for the first time, and it was love at first paw!
Both bears were rescued from heartbreaking conditions:
🌍 Bakhmut was found in war-torn Donetsk, trapped without food or water. Thankfully, he was rescued in September 2022 and now enjoys a peaceful life at the sanctuary.
🏨 Ruta spent years in a concrete cage at a hotel in Lviv region, Ukraine, before her rescue in 2020.
After living alone for a while, both bears showed curiosity toward each other — so our team gently introduced them. Now, they’re inseparable!
💦 Bakhmut loves swimming, while Ruta prefers napping in the shade. Even when they wander apart, Ruta is always the first to find him. They’ve already found harmony — and even share their treats. 🍓

In today’s vlog, Pieter takes us behind the scenes at LIONSROCK Big Cat Sanctuary to roll out some Big Enrichment!. Enrichment is a vital part of their daily rehabilitation.
