Since its inception, Wildlife Friends Foundation has given shelter to thousands of wild animals. Many of these animals are rehabilitated and released back to the wild. Those that cannot be released are provided with shelter at the Wildlife Rescue Center of WFFT for the rest of their lives.

Thailand has a rich, biological diversity. However, human pressures such as overexploitation, habitat loss and habitat degradation, are pushing many of Thailand creatures to the brink of extinction.

Furthermore, young gibbons, macaques, lorises, bears and other wild animals are commonly illegally poached from the wild to be sold as pets, tigers are used for photo props and elephants are used in other inhumane tourist attractions. WFFT is trying her best to get those animals out of the miserable conditions they are living in and to educate both local and international communities about animal welfare and wildlife conservation.

Where feasible, WFFT tries to provide the rescued animals within their care with an environment as close to their natural habitat as possible. Their overall objective will always be to rehabilitate and release these animals back to the wild. Unfortunately for the majority of the animals at the Wildlife Rescue Center, this is often difficult and in some cases, not feasible at all.
