Rescue Angels



These little special rescuers, although speechless, have successfully helped our soldiers searching for quake survivors and saved their lives.

"Among all rescue equipment, rescue dogs are very important. They are able to effectively search through the debris and locate survivors without the same restrictions on space."





In Du Jiang Yan, several rescue dogs have been working without rest for several days. Due to the interruption in communications and transportation, rescuers and their dogs are facing food shortages. Some of them are injured due to aftershocks and cuts from debris. Volunteers and relief departments are making progress and delivering food and medical supplies to rescuers.
