The Moon Bear Rising compilation CD is an assortment of artists from around the world that have joined together to save the Moon Bears. Our profits go to Animals Asia Foundation to assist in their project to remove and rehabilitate the Moon Bears. Moon Bears are farmed for their bile in a practice that can only be described as a fate worse than death. They live from cub to death horizontally in a metal coffin smaller than their bodies and have their coveted bile removed by a rusty catheter thrust into their gall bladders. Animals Asia has removed approximately 215 bears from the bile farms into sanctuary and are currently constructing a new sanctuary to house more of these remarkable bears. ANIMALS ASIA FOUNDATION This is a Chinese Moon Bear... destined to live its life in this cage with a rusty catheter attached to its gall bladder so that Chinese can extract its "coveted" bile! What would you do if you stood eight feet tall and were never able to stand? What would you do if you lived in a cage with only enough room to stick out a paw for food? What would you do if your teeth were cut off and your nails pulled out? What would you do if your ulcerated insides burned from a rusty catheter thrust into your gall bladder to milk your bile? What would you do if you were an Asian Moon Bear? Andrew was a captive bear and stands proudly here after spending most of his life in a caged metal coffin being, "milked," He is the poster child for the Moon Bears and had four wonderful years of freedom before he passed away. We love you Andrew!

8/5/2007 8:38:53 PM Maria's song 'Andrew' literally brought tears to my eyes. I cannot fathom how people (if you can call them that) can be so utterly barbaric towards such amazing creatures. Guys, I applaud the work you are all doing and if there is anything I can do to help, please let me know. Much love and respect, SuperPuss =^.^=
