Primates

Two more monkeys rescued from the coconut industry. Never again will Jor and Lek have to be chained up and forced to work. Shortly after arriving at WFFT, both Jor and Lek had their metal collars removed and had a full health check.

Tengkwa, and the rest of her white-handed gibbon family are thriving on their new, large forested island at WFFT. This is the next crucial step in their rehabilitation journey. 

As binturong are shy and mostly active during the night, we just love these images of Yin gobbling down his evening dinner. Binturong, also known as bearcats, are listed as a vulnerable species.

Otters are Not Pets! Please join us today, on World Otter Day, to spread the message. ภาษาไทยด้านล่าง   WFFT is home to 17 rescued Oriental small-clawed otters. Although it is illegal to trade otters, and they are a protected species in Thailand, the otter trade still sadly exists. This ruthless trade is pushing these endangered species to extinction.

Are you in Thailand? Do you have some time to spare and want to give back a little? If so, THAILAND’S RESCUED WILDLIFE NEEDS YOU! WFFT is desperately seeking volunteers to come and help us take care of our 700+ rescued animals. Volunteers help prepare food, feed our rescued wildlife, make enrichment, clean enclosures and much more. Please email volunteer@wfft.org for more information. Food and accommodation are provided.

A member of the public contacted us about this bird of prey who was found injured and weak in a garden. The WFFT team immediately went to pick him up, so he could receive life-saving treatment at our wildlife hospital.

A few days ago a member of the public found a Bengal slow loris in their garden and contacted us for help. The team headed out to rescue the loris. After the initial health check it appears that the loris had sustained burns to his hind limbs and puncture wounds from a domestic dog or cat attack.

Meet Kong, a juvenile Long-tailed macaque who was rescued 3 weeks ago. Some concerned locals had found Kong on the floor. He was rushed back to the WFFT Wildlife Hospital for emergency treatment.
