Uno spent 18 years on a bile farm... this is the moment he felt the sun for the first time ever

Two years ago Animals Asia rushed to rescue Uno, a male moon bear who had spent his entire life - 18 years - trapped in a tiny, rusty cage in a dark room.
The reason? For his bile to be extracted and sold for traditional medicine.
Today we're celebrating Uno's two-year rescue anniversary by re-sharing the touching moment he felt the warmth of the sun on his face for the very first time.
Enjoy this lovely film and if you would like to help us reach more bears like Uno who are still trapped on bile farms in Vietnam, please join us today: fal.cn/3sDWI
