Lebanon sits on a trafficking route for endangered wildlife. Lion cubs sold as photo props, chimpanzees in cages behind restaurants, bears in concrete pits: we find them, build the legal case, confiscate them, and move them to sanctuaries.

We closed three abusive zoos and rehomed over 100 animals. Each case below is documented from confiscation to outcome.
