About us | The Bilbies

The Bilbies was born in 2017 to bring animal stories to English-speaking readers.

What we tell

True animal stories: rescues, unlikely friendships and the science behind the way animals live. We look for the stories behind the viral clips: who the animal is, what really happened and what it says about the way we share the world with other species.

Who we write for

For anyone who can’t walk past an animal in need, wherever they read us.

What we’re after

That every story leaves more than a smile: an idea, a gesture, a better decision toward animals.
To open eyes to animal welfare and our place in the lives of other species.
A corner of hope for those who believe animals make the world better.

Who we are and how we work

Ramiro Libreros and Anyie Espinosa founded it, and we make it together with Lorena Muñoz, the same team behind Notas de Mascotas, Sra Bigotes and Animales Queridos.
