Life at BSBCC: The Second day

Text by Wai Pak Ng
 

This morning when I first step in the bear house, I found Julaini still sleeping inside her hanging basket in his den just like others in the centre. He must have slept well and had a sweet dream the entire night. Julaini really deserve it. I am sure it has been a long time that he did not sleep well. I just cannot imagine he could sleep well in  a 4x 4x 5 feet iron cage with faeces and left over food on the ground !

Meanwhile, Ah Lun, the other female cub who arrive at the same day with Julaini, still need some more exploration and time to make use of the sleeping basket. However, she is getting more comfortable with my existence. Below are some close up of Ah Lun.

Some words to Little Julaini and Ah Lun:
​
Welcome to BSBCC! It’s our duty to provide a better life to every rescued sun bears that send to our centre. I hope both of you like your new home. This is just the beginning. Very soon, we will bring you back to the forest, your real home.
However, before that can happen please be patient. Both of you still need to go through some learning programme after your quarantine period for 3 weeks. Suria already getting very exciting to know that both of you so that you all will mix and form a young cub group. She also can't wait to show you how fun to dig soil, looking for termites and climb up to the tree!

Suria rest on ground after digging and breaking decay wood in the training pen.
