We have some breaking and very sad news.
WARNING: The following story and video contains content some viewers may find very distressing.
We are so sorry, and beyond devastated, to have to tell you that our Paddington Bear - whose story inspired so many of you - has tragically lost her fight to live.
Just three weeks after we rescued Paddington from 17 years on a bile farm, her carers found her unable to stand and seeming confused. We rushed her to our on-site bear hospital where, after carrying out a thorough health check and giving her pain relief, Paddington stopped breathing.
The vet team performed CPR and tried heroically to save her, but she tragically slipped away. She was surrounded by people who loved her beyond words.
We laid Paddington to rest in our sanctuary graveyard, where we lay all the bears we’ve rescued, loved, and lost. The vet and bear care team held a funeral and, heartbroken, read out personal poems and letters they’d written to her.
We know this is incredibly sad news for you all. It has sent shockwaves through Animals Asia and our bear care and vet team in Vietnam is, understandably, devastated.
Please be kind to yourselves as you process this information, and take comfort in knowing that you made Paddington’s rescue possible, and showed her love and kindness for the first time in her life. Without you, she would have died alone on that farm.
Paddington’s death has highlighted the urgent need to build our new sanctuary as fast as possible so we can rescue every last bear still suffering on bile farms, before it’s too late for them.

From everyone at Animals Asia, thank you for your outpouring of love and support for Paddington and all the desperate souls we’ve brought to sanctuary… and those we've yet to reach.
Until there’s No Bear Left Behind.
