Day after day, Baloo paces and rocks in distress, his spirit broken from over two decades of solitary confinement.
For “food,” Baloo is tossed cornflakes and lemonade. Children poke at him with sticks between his bars. Sometimes, people even give him alcohol. This isn’t the life any bear should live. It’s the only life Baloo has known.
Compassionate individuals from around the world are working to send Baloo to our sanctuary, Libearty.

"It felt like a part of my soul died."
Now Keira is one of many Greenlandic families living on the Danish mainland who are fighting to get their children returned to them after they were removed by social services.
In such cases, babies and children were taken away after parental competency tests - known in Denmark as FKUs - were used to help assess whether they were fit to be parents.

in reply to anna_lillith 🇺🇦🌱🐖 • • •The law is on our side. Since 2005, private individuals have been banned from possessing bears in Romania, but the ski resort owner obtained an exception. Despite this, it’s clear that Baloo’s current conditions are no life for the wild and majestic bear that he is.
Millions of Friends Association (AMP) in Romania, is ready to care for Baloo. With 69 acres of lush woodland, meadows, and ponds, Baloo could finally live his life in peace alongside other rescued bears.
