Adopt an animal
Adopt one or more of the animals we care for at the Bali Wildlife Rescue Center. In return, you’ll get a certificate for each lucky creature you sponsor.
The rescue center is a haven for endangered wildlife, most of whom are victims of illegal trading and poaching. Our dedicated team provides year-round personalised care and rehabilitation with the eventual goal of returning these creatures to their natural habitat. Unfortunately for some, their health means they will never be released into the wild and will need ongoing care.
You can help by adopting one of these beautiful animals or birds. Your donation will help us provide food and care for one month. Thank you for supporting Indonesia’s wildlife.
