The Mission to Save our Bornean Sun Bears

Thank you to the Hasanah Foundation, Sime Darby Foundation, Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture of Malaysia (MOTAC), Ministry of Finance Malaysia (MOF), Sabah State Government, Sabah State Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Environment (KePKAS), Sabah Forestry Department, Sabah Wildlife Department, and many other funders and supporters from across the world who have made our work possible over the last 17 years. With your continued support, we will work even harder to protect the sun bears!

We are grateful to Tourism Malaysia for choosing sun bears as the mascots for Visit Malaysia 2026. Our long-time dream to transform sun bears from forgotten creatures, known to few, into popular icons will be achieved by next year!
