Add your voice to ban the commercial trade of big cats from South Africa

South Africa is intensively farming and trading big cats and their parts for commercial purposes.

The captive exploitation of big cats in South Africa continues to grow. Throughout farms in South Africa, big cats are intensively bred often in inhumane, dirty and overcrowded conditions.

Paying tourists are allowed to cuddle and play with cubs who have been ripped away from their mothers at a young age.

Big cats are being traded both legally and illegally from South Africa, fuelling a global market for traditional Asian medicine products and so-called luxury items. This is contributing to the decline of big cats in the wild and to a global biodiversity crisis.

We are campaigning to end the commercial trade of all big cats and their parts from South Africa. But we need your help. Add your name to our petition now!
