Two Asiatic black bears in safe at Rescue Centre
13:50, 2014/03/12
Two Asiatic black bears (Ursus thibetanus) settled into their new residence at Tam Dao Bear Rescue Centre in Vinh Phuc province.
The two individuals were handed over by Xuan Lien Nature Reserve in central Thanh Hoa province after being built up at the reserve for two years. They were rescued from illegal traffickers by the province’s rangers, mid-2012.
The bears after being care for at the reserve now weigh nearly 70kg each. Plans were to release them into the nature, yet as they lack natural foraging behaviour it could be difficult for them to survive and so the reserve management board decided to transfer them to the Bear Rescue Centre for nurturing.
Asiatic black bears are listed under Appendix I of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES). The Government’s Decree No. 32/2006/NĐ-CP also prohibits the exploitation, use and trafficking of such bears.
