Most of us are used to thinking of animals as our pets, writes maestosoanimali

Of course, some animals can offer us extraordinary companionship and we can return the favor by offering them a roof over their heads, love and all the care they need to lead a happy life.

But to think that we own animals would be a mistake, especially when it comes to wild animals. However, there are some people out there who think that it is okay to exploit animals and deny their right to freedom to make a quick buck. Against all rules and regulations, many wild animals are kept in small and dirty cages for the purpose of being exploited.

Whether it’s a circus, a private zoo, or an animal that can be booked for events, what’s going on can be summed up in one word: exploitation.
The bear in the video below named Tuffy was rescued after years of living on a bear bile farm. For all of you who don’t know this harsh reality, bile bears are bears kept in captivity to harvest their bile, a digestive fluid produced by the liver and stored in the gallbladder, which is used by some practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine.
This video shows the joy Tuffy felt when he dove into his pool at an animal shelter.
