Where Your Donation Goes
Donations support the care expenses of the animals in our sanctuaries (including food and veterinary care, as well as construction and maintenance of the enclosures). For more detailed information, you can access our annual reports, where you will find a breakdown of expenses. If you would like to donate towards a specific project, let us know. To support a certain animal, see the Sponsor-an-Animal programme.

Yaguara Jaguar
This baby jaguar was rescued from wildfire in 2024 and is set to become the first jaguar ever released into the wild in Bolivia!
Felines are usually very difficult to reintroduce into the wild, and in fact, a jaguar has never been released in Bolivia, largely due to complex bureaucratic processes and government permissions. We are excited to lead a ground-breaking collaborative development within Bolivia’s conservation community to make this happen. We believe Yaguara is a strong candidate for release, as we have avoided any direct human contact with her since her initial veterinary care. She has retained her survival instincts, successfully hunting live prey within her current enclosure.
Tax-Deductible Giving
To facilitate the donation process abroad, our sister charities FIWY UK and FIWY Australia raise funds to help our work. US and Australian donors can give through our partner organisations and claim the donation against their taxes.
