Help animals

The activities of SUST

All over the world, countless animals in overcrowded shelters live sadly or struggle for their survival in wild colonies. Day after day, even today, animals that have become inconvenient are still abandoned, deported or mistakenly kept for lack of better knowledge. The Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation contributes with effective means to the fact that animal suffering can be reduced or even prevented sustainably.

This animal welfare work is based on four pillars:

1. Competence Centre Animal Shelter: Animal shelters become high-quality transition stations for homeless animals, where animals are kept and promoted in a way that is appropriate for their species and finally transferred to good new places.

2. Neutering campaigns: Braking the animal misery

3. Education and training of specialists: Specialists are given the opportunity to optimise their knowledge and improve animal welfare.

4. Education of the population: love of animals with heart and mind

These four elements form the important basis for sustainable animal welfare projects.

Those animals that are not yet able to benefit from the effects of this reconstruction work and have been born into a world where they are not wanted need the emergency aid of SUST.

Anteater joy

January 2022

Recently, another large group of animals arrived at the SUST Orphan Animal Hospital in Peru: monkeys, turtles, a sloth, several parrot birds. All of them were brought to the animal sanctuary by the Ministry of Flora and Fauna Peru. They were previously rescued from a large illegal trade in poached rainforest animals.

It was particularly fortunate this time that many of the animals had escaped mostly unharmed and could be released after a brief examination at the hospital! So was this female anteater. Since dwarf anteaters are nocturnal, the little one was taken deep into the forest by the Esperanza Verde team that same evening and set down on a branch. Always a magical moment: a living creature comes back to where it belonged from the beginning. And this time was no exception: the little anteater sat down on the branch and straightened her upper body, as if to say goodbye once again. Then she disappeared into the darkness. Wonderful!
