It started with Pole Pole. It ends with #NoElephantAlone.

43 years ago today, Pole Pole died alone at London Zoo. Her story inspired the creation of Born Free. Today, 22 elephants are still living alone in zoos and circuses across Europe.

🚨 BREAKING: The Trump administration has finalized a rule allowing hunters to lure black and brown bears with donuts, bacon grease, and other food before shooting them at close range in Alaska’s national preserves.

The move reverses a Biden-era ban despite warnings from wildlife advocates about risks to bears and public safety. https://t.co/KDTewcMxRp

Do you agree with factory farming birds so they can be shot for fun?

🦁🎮 As Planet Zoo 2 launches today, we ask: how realistic is the world's most popular zoo simulation game?

From animal welfare and enclosure design to conservation ratings and visitor appeal, we explore what's problematic in the game: 🔗 https://t.co/pyeIKrcZQj

Here is a short statement on this from @BornFreeFDN. W

You know I’m rarely lost for words. But the crass insensitivity of this post from Trump hard on the heels of a young man losing his life to a captive tiger in a UK zoo beggars belief. The boy’s family must be in bits. Outrageous. @BornFreeFDN will issue a short statement soon.

[Born Free Foundation @BornFreeFDN]

Born Free has long warned about AI-generated wildlife content that distorts perceptions of wild animals and human-wildlife interactions. Today's AI video shared by Trump, showing him wrestling a tiger, is a troubling example, coming days after a fatal tiger attack.

Trump actually posted this AI video of him with a tiger in the middle of the night. This man is demented and mentally unwell.

[Born Free Foundation @BornFreeFDN]

Our heartfelt thoughts go to the family of the man who died at Yorkshire Wildlife Park & with everyone affected, including those caring for Altai.

We're asking the Government to examine whether zoo standards are robust enough to keep people & animals safe https://t.co/XSLZCly1rL
