At our partner sanctuary in Shaitrawa, India, dedicated Friendicoes staff ensure every rescued camel receives care and attention, nutritious feed, refreshing water and the freedom to roam and explore each and every day.

During the past three months, they have also been able to assist 65 additional animals in need.

Last month, our partner group Starting Over in Israel flew 50 rescued donkeys to their forever homes in Europe. They also had the first rain of the season - a very welcome guest!
