  On the Vietnamese front line – is the title given to an article in the European Zoo and Aquarium Association magazine this month that reports on ENV’s efforts in Vietnam to enhance wildlife protection.    

Within only one week, many ENV information boards with the message “Say No to wildlife products” have been installed in 11 Intimex supermarkets. This means that our message has touched millions of people in big cities around Vietnam where there are Intimex supermarkets.  

Since we first started the “I support campaign” last month, many Vietnamese celebrities have joined ENV to spread the message “Say NO to bear bile and bear products consumption to end bear farming”.    

ENV is delighted that nearly 150 information boards with the messages “Say no to bear bile”; “Say no to Rhino horn”; and “Say no to wildlife products” have been placed in 78 Vietnamese government agencies all around Vietnam to raise awareness about the need to eliminate the wildlife trade amongst both government officials and members

Here is a little sneak peak at our new public service announcement, featuring Tuyet Minh, one of the most famous dancers and choreographers in Vietnam!    

Making the most of the good weather, ENV headed to the tourist location of Ao Vua to raise awareness about the issues with bear farming.
