ENDCAP

ENDCAP was established in 2006 by the UK-based NGO, Born Free Foundation. Their goal is to work together for captive wild animals.

Objectives

  • Operate as Europe’s united voice for captive wild animals.
  • Ensure the highest possible standards of captive wild animal welfare.
  • Provide high quality information on the state of captive wild animal welfare in Europe.
  • Ensure European legislation effectively protects animals and prevents suffering.
  • Ensure all EU Member States have access to knowledge and training to influence and achieve effective enforcement of animal protection law.
  • Push for a change away from keeping wild animals in captivity in favour of keeping wildlife in the wild.
ENDCAP strives to help wild animals in aquariums, zoos, captive dolphin facilities, performance, circuses, trade specifically for pets, sanctuaries and rescue centers.

    Both of these posts about organizations that work to help animals in captivity are intriguing and a good way to add diversity to the posts that you include here. Do you have any specific examples of their successes over the years?
