Help sought to home two ex-circus bears.

NoNameYet · 26th of May 2011 (Thu)

I'm actually trying to help some friends from NGO's. Two bears, previously circus acts, are in need of a home. I still have very little info, but waiting for some more details. They are in Kazhakstan at present. Does anyone have some good contacts that might be helpful, something like sanctuaries, rehabilitation centres etc that can cater for them?

Check out this link: http://www.wildanimalsanctuary.org/ It is in Colorado, near Denver. I have been there and they seem to be a very committed, good organization. They recently got a whole bunch (10-15, I think it was) of lions from circuses in South America so their resources may be stretched. I know that they do have bears also. At least maybe they can suggest other resources if they can't take them. Good luck.

Thanks April. They have been in contact with IFAW, but so far no luck as far as I am informed. I am forwarding the info you supplied. Thanks once again.
