Bolivia Animal Sanctuary Project
"We aim to protect and conserve vulnerable animals' endangered habitats and areas of scientific and ecological importance"

Working with Inti Wara Yassi this project protects, rehabilitates, and where possible re-releases into the wild animals that have been rescued from ill treatment and inhumane captivity.
What's the problem?
Animals in Bolivia are often kept illegally, exotic animals are traded on the black market with little care as to their well being, they have often been abused which can result in permanent disabilities meaning that they would die without our help.
Jon talks about Ambue Ari and the essential need for a buffer zone around the park:
How Quest4Change helps
We have been working with Inti Wara Yassi since 2003, providing much needed financial and volunteer support. Volunteers have spent thousands of man hours caring for, feeding and rehabilitating 1,000s of rescued animals from Monkeys to Pumas. When re-release into the wild is not a possibility our aim is to make their lives as comfortable as possible through the construction of bespoke cages.


“Building cages in Jacj Cuisi felt very worthwhile, especially after getting to meet the animals in Machia.” Chris Bentley, Volunteer Bolivia 2009
Project Partner:
Quest4Change is working in partnership with Inti Wara Yassi supporting the United Nations Millennium Development Goal 7 - Ensuring Environmental stability.

The Year of the Puma! The Quest volunteers of 2011 achieved a lot this year. At the start of the year, the Gap 1 team gamely struggled on in some terrible weather in Jacq Cuisi, completing a large enclosure for Sacha the puma. The second lot of Quest volunteers also did a fantastic job on two puma enclosures fro Simba and Lucy. Yet more puma enclosure construction for the Summer team, this time for two newly rescued baby pumas - no, we don't have any piuctures yet, sorry!
In other news, nearly £700 has been raised with our Popular the Jaguar appeal - soon he'll have a new home.
