Help us reach 25,000 signatures for Laxmi. Once we hit that number we will do a major press-release showing that there is a groundswell of people who demand justice for her. Laxmi died from starvation and from severe beatings. Charges need to be filed against her abusers. Public awareness and pressure will help. https://e-activist.com/page/19919/petition/1
Thank you!

#UpdateOnMowgliBear
Watching young Mowgli exuberantly bounding around his enclosure at the#AgraBearRescueFacility, it is hard to imagine that it has been almost a year since he first came into our lives!

In February 2017, 10 week old Mowgli was left orphaned after his mother was electrocuted by high tension wires set up by poachers in the state of #MadhyaPradesh, India. Once rescued and rehabilitated at the #WildlifeSOS #AgraBearRescueCenter, our dedicated team of keepers & vets made sure to provide the much needed TLC and help him recover from his traumatic past!
Today, Mowgli is a far cry from the scrawny little helpless cub he was when he first stepped at our rescue center! Catch his shenanigans as we celebrate his first Rescue Anniversary!
Would you like to contribute towards his well being & make him your #valentine?http://bit.ly/2rkPvNw

This elephant deserves justice — sign our petition today at https://goo.gl/wEfhZ8

In Motihari, Bihar, India an elephant named Laxmi (not our Laxmi at our rescue center in Mathura) died in extreme pain and horrific isolation after suffering her entire life at the hands of cruel humans. She was illegally captured from the wild, then tortured and allowed to wither away, denied the care that would have saved her life. Such illegal trafficking, neglect, and severe abuse of elephants is intolerable, and a precedent must be set.

It breaks our hearts to know we could not reach her in time, but we believe that she deserves justice — even if she never saw a single day of freedom. Please let the Chief Wildlife Warden of Bihar know that illegal trafficking, neglect, and severe abuse of elephants like Laxmi is intolerable, and a precedent must be set. Demand justice for Laxmi.

Rescued from the streets of #UttarPradesh where he was abused as a begging elephant, Sanjay completes a year of freedom with #WildlifeSOS today! To commemorate his first rescue anniversary, the veterinarians & elephant keepers at the #ElephantConservationandCareCenter put together a surprise for our pachyderm!
