Tell the Vietnamese and Chinese to stop using bears in medicine

The term Bile bear/Battery bear is the term used for the bears kept in captivity in Vietnam and China for their bile for the use in medicine. These animals are treated terrible and are kept in cages hardly big enough for their body to fit in. This juice in their liver and gall bladder is extracted by am implanted tube twice a day and can be very painful, and bears will even chew their paws during the painful process. The bile contains ursodeoxycholic acid which is thought to reduce fever, protect the liver, break down gall stones, etc, but it is not fair or humane to the bears who have to suffer for it. We have other alternatives to this, and we need to use them. The cages these bears are kept in are called a crush cage due to its size and what it does to the bear. Please sign this petition to help stop this inhumane activity.
